Pair 18th Century Reclining Iron Lion Andirons on a Brass Base

About the Item

A spectacular pair of reclining wrought iron lions atop a square brass base with wrought Iron billets. The pair are rare, as we have not seen lions reclining. The look is very traditional French, however works in many spaces... the lions are nicely sculpted.
