Historical stove fitters'/fireplace guild plaque – cast metal, flame motif, 1930s–60s, workshop mark with patina, blue and gold

Authentic guild plaque of the fireplace and stove-making trade, made of heavy cast metal (1930s–1960s). The relief depicts a stylized flame above a brick base – a traditional symbol for stove fitters, hearth and furnace builders, and other fire-related trades. The plaque has a beautiful, honest patina with signs of age and wear.

A distinctive object for collectors of craft and guild symbols, industrial history, workshop decoration, or as a striking vintage detail in interior design.

My shop offers several historical guild and craft plaques made of cast metal. The symbols shown come from various trades (locksmiths, blacksmiths, agriculture, mechanical engineering, state inspection marks, etc.) and can be purchased individually. Each plaque is an original workshop or guild mark from the period 1930–1960 with authentic patina.

Please note: Not every plaque in this series has foundry marks on the reverse. Some pieces were made in small workshops or regional guilds where markings were not standardized. Others show clear casting numbers or control stamps. Each plaque is an original craft or guild mark.
