A pair of Charles II style ornate silver plated brass andirons in the Baroque manner. The large urns, with gadroon detail top and bottom, are surmounted by fruited foliate finials, female masks with flowing locks either side, central masks of Greek athletes in medallions supported on substantial four cloven-footed, scrolled plinths, centred by lion masks. Pagan Roman inspiration is evident here.
English, 19th century.
