Pair of gilded bronze andirons, with antique decoration.
They are each made up of a main column with cut sides, depicted in their center with a knotted ribbon and attributes of war (arrows and quivers, bow and torches), two ears of wheat on the corners and a diamond in relief on each side.
It rests on a base enriched with a beaded laurel frieze and topped with a « raie-de-coeur » frieze on which is an urn with two foliage handles.
This one is decorated with an elegant floral garland held by the two handles, and its top is decorated with a pine cone.
The main column extends on the facade, with a frieze in "raies-de-coeur" embellished with a large central ribbon from which a floral garland escapes. And a beaded laurel frieze, centered with a stylized flower and a pine cone on the upper facade.
At its end stands a firepot placed on a square column decorated with ears of wheat and highlighted with a beaded laurel frieze.
Beautiful work from the Louis XVI period in its original gilding.
