Antique One-Piece Cooking Andiron from France, circa 1800
About the Item
This is an antique "monochenet" or single piece andiron from France, dating to the late 1700s or early 1800s. Known as a "Landier" in French, this particular type of andiron was used in kitchens for keeping foods warm or roasting meats on a cooking rod. This piece has two holders on top, which would have held and warmed foods and liquids in round containers or bowls. The finely wrought hooks toward the top would hold the cooking rod or spit. We do not often run across antique one piece andirons like this one.

Period French Louis XVI Giltwood Firescreen, circa 1780
Located in Dallas, TX
This Louis XVI period giltwood firescreen is a rather unique find. Typically firescreens from this period (the late 1700’s) were produced with a tapestry or needlepoint body; this particular piece has a solid colored (gold) silk upholstery screen which meshes well with the giltwood frame. Firescreens were used during warmer months to cover the opening of the fireplace.
The detachable crest (which can be removed to replace or reupholster the screen) has bell shaped finials on the shoulders that are connected by a raised carving. These elements are surrounded by slightly spiral gadrooning. Beneath the crest is a repeating laurel leaf motif that runs all the way around the border. The ornamentation is double sided. Louis XVI firescreens...
