 You could use it just about anywhere to enhance any wall and room.  In addition --the upper is made with gesso/plaster and gold gilt  painted and this is much consuming time in the makings and from being old --some pieces are missing ---although one would not notice by viewing --in addition to wiring having some minor loss and cracks shown  and I will  pack it ultra well for you and secure all these pieces well and stuff each and make sure its truly packed well  for a safe arrival at your door-- as its honestly a gorgeous piece as you can see.

PG.MISC.1.FIRE.    Gorgeous Antique French Fireplace Screen in Bronze.  This is stunning even with it not being polished.  It is heavy Bronze and when polished it would be a Exquisite site.  If  you wish to use this without being polished it remains just as charming.  The legs can be removed for shipping in which I will do for you when I packed it well and they are easy to place back even with one of the screws a little different then the other. 

The legs are lovely as I don't see them usually in my travels as heavy, ornate & wide as this piece.

The interior mesh screen is torn as shown in photos-- you can remove and replace it if you wish--the backside has screws in which one can remove and replace the screen very easy.   The center of the mesh screen remains wonderful  with its huge bronze motif right in the center -- this also can be removed from the backside--as placed back onto your replaced mesh.  Each side is very ornate as well having the bronze protrude outward for a gorgeous effect no matter where one would stand. 

You may wish to remove the center mesh and add fabric inside instead.  Please take extra notice of all the ornate scrolling and the handle in addition to the wide ornate bronze legs... this entire piece is gorgeous and in solid bronze.  Circa late 1800's. French--this came from a beautiful French Chateau just north of Paris in a town called Chantilly. 

Price:  1,200.          Measurements:    36" tall by 29 3/4" wide at upper and 26" wide at the legs.   The depth is 13 3/4"..   $ 550.

                               

#AGOWRHDCR.PG.M.    Antique Persian Helmet having a tall spike at upper top.  There are two plume holders which looks to be riveted.  It has  wonderful figure scenes consisting of a female and male with surrounding foliage and flowers  which have been elaborately etched into the helmet.  It has much long chair surrounding the bottom of the helmet however due to age some sections are missing -- shown in photos.  It is in Original condition as found and would make a fantastic show piece for your collection. The iron helmet has magnificent time consuming etchings  perhaps telling a story as I am not a expert in this field.  I also noticed their are different etching scenes in each panel at upper which is more gorgeous in person.  This would be great sitting on top of a piano or display table as it has so much history to it and certainly a rarer find.
