Andiron

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a pair of andirons by artist unknown titled "Andiron". Two metal andirons standing upright on four legs each. The legs have a claw-like shape at the end. The andirons are made of metal, likely silver or chrome, and have a shiny appearance. The base of each andiron is a square block with a design on the front. Above the base, a long cylindrical section is present. At the top of the cylinder is a decorative piece resembling a vase or urn with a finial on top. A horizontal piece of metal with a flat surface extends out from the side of each andiron, near the base. The background is a plain wall.
