Description

This is an old antique fireplace cover made out of cast iron.  It is a very beautiful piece of art.   The lady is naked and their are flying baby angels around the lady.  The artwork is raised from the cast iron in the different figures that I mentioned.  It looks like flowers going around the picture of the angels and lady.  The figures has been painted gold but the flowers that trim the art is black.
