Brass And Leather Open Front Club Fender
Brass And Leather Open Front Club Fender
Brass Club Fender.
A wonderful club fender with an open front, twisted brass uprights and a rectangular brass base. The upholstered brown suede leather seat is 20 cm wide with the measurements inside the seat being 1m 49 cm. The front opening is 58 cm wide.
The idea with the open front of the fender is to retain access to the fire and to allow more heat to escape into the room. With a club fender you also add an extra dimension to a fireplace by providing more seating.
Fenders were all the rage in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and were found in Gentleman's Clubs, libraries and billiard rooms of country houses.
