About the Item
Sculptural blade-form andirons designed by Donald Deskey (ca. 1959, USA).
Inspired by Samuel Gottscho's 1939 "Trylon and Perisphere" exhibited at the 1939 World's Fair, the bulbous, orb-form iron bases are contrasted by the sharp, streamlined blades/uprights.
Rich, natural patina to the unpolished brass along with light scuffing, as shown. Polishing will eradicate most of the wear.
