About the Item

A set of brass and cast iron fire dogs in the style of Ernest Gimson. Thought to be working replicas of fire dogs designed for Haddon Hall, these pierced filigree finials have a deep neck and shining brass finish. At over 100 years old, this English pair display a characterful time worn look. Alluding to luxury and elegance, they would make a beautiful new addition to a period or contemporary home alike. Ernest Gimson (1864-1919) Ernest Gimson had a passion for metalwork, from medieval door hinges to elaborate 17th-century fire dogs. Metalwork makes up a large proportion of pages in his sketchbooks. Gimson also designed complex pierced and chased work, based on 17th-century designs he admired. This pair are after the original 17th century pair at Haddon Hall, in Bakewell. A virtually identical pair resides at the Cheltenham Art Gallery & Museum. Additional information The dimensions stated are for each urn. The overall weight is for both. We have other similar sets available, please enquire.
