This pair of French antique cast iron andirons or firedogs, date to the 19th century. They are large and heavy and each have two spit hooks to the front. They would work equally well in a traditional or a modern setting.
Made from heavy cast iron, they have a naturally aged patina with traces of time-worn texture that add to their character. Originally used to support logs and to spit roast in an open hearth, these fire dogs now make beautiful decorative pieces for a fireplace.
