A genuine half round beaded cast iron rainwater system with double beading.
The beaded half round cast iron gutter sample allows you to verify the profile, finish, socket dimensions, and material quality before committing to a full specification. The beaded half round is the traditional guttering profile across Scotland and northern England — the double bead along both lips of the gutter section is a defining feature of period architecture from Edinburgh and Glasgow to Newcastle and Leeds, and matching it exactly matters on a conservation or listed building project.
Order a sample to confirm that the Tuscan Foundry beaded profile is compatible with your existing installation, to compare against a surviving section before ordering a replacement run, or to present to a client or conservation officer as part of a specification approval process.
Supplied as a short length in factory black finish. For a full quotation or specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

It is appropriate on listed buildings and conservation area properties as a like-for-like decorative vent replacement, and on new heritage-quality construction where period detailing is required.
