Pair of andirons, "Andiron", with four legs each, standing on a flat surface. The andirons are made of metal and have a dark finish. Each has a flame-shaped finial at the top. The finial is attached to a faceted diamond-shaped piece, which is on top of a twisted column. The column is on top of a faceted rectangular piece, which sits on a short column. The short column is on top of a base with a concave curve on its side that tapers down and attaches to four legs. The legs are curved with a scroll-like design and end in a ball. The andirons are positioned on a flat surface, with a plain wall behind them. The image is in black and white.
