Striking pair of 19th-Century French cast iron fireplace andirons features beautifully detailed mythical creatures—possibly griffins or dragons—each with chains attached to decorative rings in their mouths, adding a bold and storied aesthetic to any hearth.
Expertly cast, these andirons showcase intricate sculptural details typical of the Romantic or Gothic Revival period, with stylized forms and dramatic flourishes. The craftsmanship reflects both artistic and functional intent, intended to elevate a grand interior while serving their original purpose in the fireplace.
