Antique American Bell Metal Andiron Set, Ca. 1800

America Ca 1800

I don’t get many andirons in bronze. This is a particularly nice group of right and left lemon top andirons with matching shovel and tongs. The log stops and tools have bee hive molded lemon tops.

Price

$850 / set

Condition

Very good + antique condition. Normal wear and dings. One of the top lemons has a flatish dent on the back side. The billet bars are in particularly good condition.

Measurements

Each andiron is 21" deep, 16 1/2" high, 11" wide The shovel and tongs are 31" long.

Next Piece

Tall Chippendale Style Brass Andirons

These stately examples look just like late 18th century originals that were made for the wealthiest American families. This particular form is associated with Philadelphia makers.
