Andirons
« on: November 18, 2010, 08:53:56 am »
I put these on ebay before doing any research...mostly because I would not know where to start. was hoping someone here might point me in the right direction. was told they were Deco, 1920s maybe, although style does not look it. They are heavy, 18lbs each(brass over cast iron?) and almost 2ft tall. tops and bases are solid while the shaft is not solid all the way thru. could not find a makers mark. thnx for looking.
