Description
Hand Carved Fire Surround with Rams Head- Reclaimed
This reclaimed hand carved rams head fire surround is a striking example of skilled craftsmanship and classical design. Made from solid hardwood, it features detailed carvings of ram’s heads connected by floral swags. Each carving is slightly different, showcasing the individuality of true handmade work. Beneath each head hangs a carved tail in the same flowing design, while small rosettes sit above the swags to complete the pattern. The surround itself is sturdily built, with a double board mantle and thick plank legs. This gives it weight and structure. Measuring 162cm wide, 19cm deep and 128cm high, it is slightly wider than standard surrounds but of regular height.
This reclaimed hand carved piece carries clear signs of age and previous use. Light scuffs, worn edges and a thin layer of dust suggest several years in storage. On the reverse, soot from years of fires has darkened the timber, particularly in one corner. These marks lend authenticity, reflecting its working past and giving the piece a distinctive, rustic appearance. For a more polished finish, light refurbishment would restore the wood’s depth of colour and reveal the intricate carving in even greater detail. Whether left as found or carefully restored, this reclaimed hand carved rams head fire surround will bring character to any interior.
