PAIR OF LOUIS XV STYLE ANDIRONS – 19th CENTURY

Beautiful pair of andirons (or landiers) in chiselled and gilded bronze (or heavy-section brass) in Rocaille style.
The decoration, richly dynamic, features a base adorned with floral rosettes and broad stylized acanthus leaves in relief. The upper part is crowned by a fluted baluster shaft ending in a twisted bobbin finial.
The whole rests on its original wrought-iron feet with curved ends, allowing the logs to be supported.

• Style: Louis XV
• Materials: Bronze/Brass and Iron
• Condition: In good house condition. Old-use patina with traces of natural verdigris in the recesses (accentuating the chasing). Feet sound and solid.
