Part of an ornate hand fed coal parlor stove. Parlor stoves was a sign of prosperity. At the end of the 19th century, fancier high class homes had ornate heating equipment. This is a louvered air intake from one of those boilers. It has a magnificent Art Nouveau neo-classical pattern. The best of this size and type you will ever find. One of the finest grates you will ever find. For decor or fixer upper. I have it on one of my tables. Great for book shelf too. Charming antique Art Nouveau Adjustable louvered Register Grate. Dated 1887 Very rare. This part most likely the air intake vent. Measures 22″ long, 1 3/4″ deep, 7 1/2 high. No damage and the sliding adjustable closures work perfectly. It is hard to put a price on something so rare and so beautiful and great condition.
