| Museums display a few French cast iron mortars, and in the 17th and 18th centuries fine decorated firebacks were cast in the Sussex and Kentish Weald. |
| My private encounter with a family of crested firebacks, one of the many stunning partridges in the area, will long remain in my mind's eye. |
| The output for these furnaces was pig iron, a coarse and brittle product that could be used only for casting crude heavy items such as kettles, stove plates, and firebacks. |
| In the same area we were fortunate to freeze in position as we watched three Siamese firebacks scratching for food in the leaves under a large bush. |
| Among the offerings are andirons, damper hooks, fenders, firebacks, fire-tool sets, and screens. |
| These crestless firebacks are also very striking birds but are not very common in captivity. |
