This is a pair of vintage figural andirons. An English, cast iron fire dog in the manner of the Carron Foundry, dating to the Art Deco period, circa 1930.

  • Fascinating Victorian revival andirons, with good proportion and visual appeal
  • Displaying a desirable aged patina and in good order throughout
  • Good consistent graphite finish, with gentle wear to the figure's head
  • Cast in the manner of the Carron Foundry originals, a Scottish ironworks established in 1759

  • Charming figures presented in bust form on raised supports with cast fire tool motif
  • Distinctive front legs presented as nautical representations of fish, with scales and fins
  • Long rear support leg with bowed form, offering a generous basket rest of 40cm (15.75'') depth

This is a delightful pair of figural andirons, the bust form being redolent of awards statues and the proportion being well suited to larger hearths. Delivered ready for the fireplace.
