AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful pair of brass and cast-iron andirons, pierced with architectural and military decoration, adorned with helmeted heads in high relief, typical of Historicism. The workmanship is rich, balanced and highly decorative, with a fine depth of sculpture and a warm antique patina.

The proportions are elegant (33 cm tall), ideal for a classic or decorative fireplace. The piece has a strong visual presence while remaining easy to integrate. Signs of wear are consistent with its age, without major alterations.

An expressive and sought-after model, combining character, typeface quality, and immediate decorative impact.
