The Panklibanon show room, and stove grate manufactory / Bell, Massey, & Co.
A trade catalogue of 1860 published in London by Bell, Massey & Co., a stove and grate maker, and aimed at buyers of domestic ironwork and kitchen equipment. Its plates show ornamental staircase balusters, a conservatory, a cast and wrought iron gate, and a range of pastry and jelly moulds, drawn in fine pen and line with plain shading. A designer could take from them the clean outline style of Victorian cast-iron ornament, with scrolling floral balusters and repeated fluted and lattice patterns that suit historical revival work.
