Each features a beautifully cast lion head, regal in form and expression, resting upon sturdy bases that speak to the quality of 19th century craftsmanship. The brass shows a gorgeous, time-worn patina—deep and mellow, with the kind of surface only generations of use can create. Their substantial weight gives them a sense of solidity and permanence, both decorative and functional. Hand selected in and imported from England, these andirons are a handsome addition to any hearth or collection of fine antique brass. See less
