The andirons serve to support the logs in the hearth, allowing better air circulation and therefore more efficient combustion. The log guard prevents the wood from rolling out of the fireplace. Each upright is adorned with a putto holding a torch, perched on a column decorated with raised garlands. The arched facade is embellished with a scroll frieze and a central medallion, supporting a grate with oval rings punctuated with gilded balls. The tapered legs and small vases atop the uprights complete the ensemble. This object is both utilitarian and decorative, typical of Neoclassical and Empire tastes, but certainly brings timeless elegance to all types of fireplaces. See less
