Today we are featuring a pair of antique sand-casted brass anchor fireplace andirons. These rare anchor fronts differ slightly due to casting imperfections during the sand casting process. These nautical fisherman style anchor andirons stand 16 inches tall and11 1/2 inches wide.
The original shanks were gone, so we had short black-painted iron shanks custom made as replacements. They measure 7 inches deep from front of andiron to back of shank. (designed to stand in front of a fire gate or in a shallow firebox). Beautiful early nautical andirons that will certainly adorn your fireplace!
Here's the link to these antique brass anchor andirons on Skipjack's website:
