Ribbon Cast Iron Radiator 460mm
Classic Victorian Radiator – Intricate Celtic Band Detailing

The 460mm (18 inch) high Ribbon Cast Iron Radiator is the smallest size in this traditional series. Featuring a beautifully detailed Celtic band pattern flowing gracefully down each section, this historic design was originally manufactured by the American Radiator Company around 1880. Originals of this model are often found in churches around the world.

Known as one of the most challenging cast iron designs to reproduce, our foundry crafts the highest quality versions of the Ribbon radiator—virtually indistinguishable from the original.

Manufactured using traditional foundry methods, our Ribbon radiators are authentic reproductions from original mouldings. This inspiring collection reflects influences from Art Nouveau and Rococo through to Arts and Crafts.
