17th century French Louis XIV period andirons made of bronze and forged iron with a newly forged grate. The condition is good.   

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.
