AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant pair of antique andirons from the 19th century, made of solid iron with richly decorated bronze appliqués. Probably
the Alpine region (southern Germany / Austria / northern Italy), with classical-historicist design elements.
The façades are decorated with finely crafted reliefs and mascarons, flanked by crowning urn-shaped bronze pedestals. The clean lines of the iron construction harmonize with the decorative bronze ornamentation.
Such mantelpieces were not merely functional hearths, but also representative elements of the furnishings in upscale living rooms.
A rare, decorative original pair, ideal for collectors, interior design, or as authentic fireplace accessories.
