AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of antique French fireplace andirons, made of solid brass and wrought iron, with a classic design inspired by French style.
Each piece features a turned brass finial with smooth, balanced lines, complemented by a base with ornamental scrollwork, botanical details, fleur-de-lis and pinnacle motifs typical of craftsmanship from the 19th century to the early 20th century.

The iron rear structure retains its original function: raising and supporting logs to improve airflow around the fire. They retain an authentic patina, with the warm sheen of aged brass and the iron in its original dark tone, enhancing their historic character.

Approximate measurements

• Height: 20 cm
• Length of the iron bar: 38 cm
• Width of the decorative base: 14 cm.

Ideal for

• Interior decor with a classic or rustic aesthetic
• Restoration of antique fireplaces
• Collectors of historic metalwork
• Stage design, photography or set dressing.

The metals have retained their patina, which can easily be polished to a shine. Very practical and easy to handle.

This pair of andirons is not new; they are over 120 years old and handmade, with their original finishes. The finials have the angles and irregularities characteristic of their age and use. Easy to handle and in perfect working condition.
