Wrought iron andirons with the black fund and silver finish, for a distressed effect, and topped by polished brass knobs. Richly decorated, they adorn the fireplace, reviving the ancient charm of the domestic hearth and of tales to tell in the light of a burning fireplace. Andirons have the task to keep raised the wood from the base of the fireplace allowing better oxygenation and combustion and keeping logs from rolling out of your fireplace. These useful fireplace tools are composed of sturdy rear shanks and upright guard bars decorated with curly forgings and striped leaves.
