Description

  • Russel Wright
  • Pair of "Fire Deer" Andirons
  • wrought-iron

Condition

Each andiron in overall very good condition. Each presenting with a faint rusty coloring towards the back end and in the crevices of the form, but difficult to discern and common in this type of material. The casting of one of the 'deer's' nose is less smooth in form than the other, but not visually distracting. A whimsical and stylized design, both andirons present very well overall.
