About the Item

These 19th Century French Cast Iron Fire Dogs are fine examples of classic fireplace accessories, crafted with ornate detail that reflects the grandeur of the period. Known as "chenets" in French, they serve both a practical purpose and a decorative one, elevating the hearth into an element of sophisticated design. Each andiron features the regal effigy of a woman in classical attire, complete with a detailed coiffure and poised expression. The figures are perched elegantly atop sturdy pedestals, finished with a rich patina that enhances the intricate workmanship. Their solid construction not only supported the logs within the fireplace but also added a touch of elegance to the domestic environment. These fire dogs would make an imposing statement in any antique-inspired interior, offering a glimpse into the luxurious interior decorations of the past.
