An elegant and stately pair of 19th century brass andirons, beautifully executed in the American Chippendale style, featuring classic ball-and-claw feet and finely cast acorn finials. Likely East Coast American-made, these andirons date from the mid-to-late 1800s and showcase the timeless design language of early American decorative arts.
Each andiron is crafted from solid brass with a warm, naturally aged patina that adds historical depth and character. The lower portions rest on bold and beautifully formed ball-and-claw feet, a hallmark of Chippendale furniture and accessories, while the upper finials are crowned with stylized acorns — a symbol of prosperity and strength in traditional design.
Perfect for use in a period fireplace or as architectural decorative objects, these andirons blend functionality with sculptural form. Their refined profile and patinated brass make them a standout addition to traditional, classic, or even eclectic interiors.
