Wow .. I stumbled into this website .. too bad the freight charges from the UK will kill the very reasonable prices for these gorgeous rads .. <a href="http://www.periodhousestore.co.uk/prods/ornate-cast-iron-radiators.html">http://www.periodhousestore.co.uk/prods/ornate-cast-iron-radiators.html</a>

Pricing

Those prices are per section. But still nice to see somebody making them from scratch. If you could get a big enough order together and wait for them then container freight would not be to much $.

doh!

I was in a rush .. I didn't hunt around to see if it was per section or not .. I actually added one to "my cart" .. it really should complain when you add just 1 section .. thanks steve for pointing this out.



Here's 1 "decorated" one I found on CL (I asked for better pics) .. it's a MONSTER: http://is.gd/jfZL3

and another not so decorated .. but also BIG: http://is.gd/jfZAU



I'm actually trying to hunt one down for my Barber right now ... while sitting for my haircut I noticed that his 1-pipe valve bonnet could be repacked and tightened as it was hissing and spurting steam so I told him I'd do it for him .. as we got talking .. he was complaining about the "steel pipe with aluminum fins on it" with a gorton tapped into a pipe-cap "radiator" he has in his shop .. I told him I'd help him find a suitable Cast Iron Rad.

actually, the prices are reasonable if you've ever got a sandblasting quote.



the UK is the only real outlet for cool (new) victorian era stuff, ie radiators, doors, mantles etc.

Hey JP, now all you need is a white utility body truck w/ pipe racks and you're good to go.  call it Dr. 'Steam' Freeley.
