The new Dragonfly radiator from heating specialists Renaissance at Home will bring a touch of opulence to the most functional of home essentials.

Crafted from cast iron, the column radiator is alive with subtle detailing depicting delicate butterflies dancing among greenery.

Barry Whitehead, Director of Marketing for Renaissance at Home, said: “The Victorians were renowned for introducing intricate detailing into their radiators and our Dragonfly radiator pays homage to these classic pieces.

“And while they might have all the charm of a period piece, the Dragonfly radiator very much benefits from modern manufacturing methods, which means it can be completely customised.”

The Dragonfly Cast Iron radiator is made to measure and comes in a range of finishes, from vintage copper and antiqued French grey through to hundreds of Farrow & Ball paint colours.
