AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant pair of antique fireplace andirons made entirely of heavy dark cast iron, dating from the late 19th century.
The fronts are decorated all around with detailed female busts wearing traditional regional clothing and headdresses. The casting is of excellent artisanal quality, typical of 19th-century metalworking traditions.
The pieces are sturdy and stable, with a beautiful original dark grey patina from age and use in the hearth. Please note a period crack line on the side base of one of the pieces, a detail typical of antique cast-iron castings that does not affect its stability or use. Please examine the photos carefully for details.
