Made in Philadelphia, circa 1800 -10, during the Federal Period.
Made of solid brass, the Andirons each sit on 2 bun feet with curved, flowing legs edged or topped with a curved shell.
The Central Column is in the form and design of a Roman Column which sits on a square plinth and finishes with a squared plinth at the top. The squared plinth is then topped with a large Ball Finial.
The back of the andirons consists of a curved brass bar ending with a smaller ball finial and turned leg, again in solid brass.
Extending backwards the Andirons have a curved cast iron stand that would extend into the fireplace.
These ANDIRONS are EXTREMELY HIGH QUALITY, PERIOD, HIGH-END ANTIQUES!
These pieces have GLORIOUS NATURAL PATINA and AGING.
They would have graced a very fine home in the North East of the US in the Early 19th Century.
