ITEM# 7403
French antique fire place andirons in a chained dragons motif. Wrought by hand circa 1880. These extraordinary andirons were forged by a master from 1.25 inch thick iron bars.The dragons are mounted with bronze fleurs-de-lis, faces, and eyes. Each andiron weighs 29 pounds, and measures 28.5 inches high x 13.5 inches wide x 25 inches deep. Excellent original estate condition. Please Note: We have seen cheap reproductions of this type of andiron, but they pale in comparison. This kind of design quality, weight and craftsmanship are very difficult to duplicated today.
