A pair of gilt and patinated bronze andirons with a décor of fantastic animals, two winged lions facing each other on a base decorated with shells and palmettes. The central gilt bronze bar is pierced with geometrical patterns.
Under the Restauration, the decorative arts under Napoléon III are pleasant, kind to delight the public and not to exalt the heroism. A sober decor, reflecting the peace and sweetness of life follows the warrior symbols of the Empire.
