About the Item

American hardwood fire surround is nicely carved, with floral decor, raised relief and a pair of fluted ionic columns on each side beneath the mantel. The finish has been "marbelized" and painted white. It would probably be best to strip and refinish, as the fire surround is made of beautiful oak wood which can be stained to preference or painted to suit a particular decorating scheme. Provenance: From a private estate and home built in 1895. Dimensions: (overall) 54" high, 76 1/2" long, 161/2" deep (12" in the middle section).   (Opening) 41 1/4" high, 41 1/2" wide.

Pair of Gilt Bronze Regency Firedogs, Attributed To Thomas Hope. England Ca 1803
By Thomas Hope
Located in Incline Village, NV
These firedogs (as they were referred to), while not really serving any utility, would have been used as decoration to enhance the visual aesthetics of the hearth, by being placed one to each side of the fireplace opening. I have attached 20 images to this listing. The last image shows how they would have been used in a fireplace setting. These highly ornate pair of gilt bronze firedogs are quite important and were, more than likely, the design of Thomas Hope (1769-1831), who created elaborate and innovative decorations whose features were influenced by his extensive travel through the Near East, Turkey, Egypt, Greece, and Europe, over a ten year period. He was the foremost interior designer during the Regency period and developed luxurious surroundings for his two lavish London residences during the early 19th century. They were decorated with items of his own design, along with those he had accumulated and collected during his travels. He introduced to the British aristocracy the term "interior design". In terms of collecting, and the acquisition of fine art...
