Purchased from a private collector who stated he personally salvaged the gates from the property during the 1980s, these remarkable pieces embody the elegance, craftsmanship, and grandeur associated with one of Los Angeles’ most iconic architectural landmarks. The set features elaborate hand-forged scrollwork, floral rosettes, spear-like detailing, and beautifully balanced symmetrical ironwork throughout. The central gate panels are crowned with ornate crest-like tops and flowing decorative motifs, while the tall accompanying side panels create a dramatic architectural composition with incredible vertical presence. Rich in Old World character and authentic aged patina, these gates would make an extraordinary statement used as garden gates, courtyard entrances, wine cellar doors, decorative wall-mounted panels, or incorporated into a Spanish Revival, Mediterranean, Gothic, French, or Old Hollywood-inspired property. The craftsmanship and scale are truly impressive, offering the kind of visual impact and historic charm only genuine antique architectural salvage can provide. See less
