Fireplace Fireback

The fireplace fireback, since the fifteen century, has been an indispensable part of the fireplace tradition in Europe.  Standing at the back of the fireplace, the cast iron fireback protects the firebrick from damage and radiated heat from the fire out into the room.  The colonists carried this tradition to America and you can still today add that touch of elegance and history to your fireplace while improving its function and preserving its brickwork as you enhance the beauty of the focal point of the room.
