This imposing pair of chenets (also known as fireplace andirons, or doorstops) features a sumptuous and detailed design. Each piece is dominated by the figure of a rampant lion, a symbol of strength and nobility, resting on an elaborate shield or cartouche and a base richly carved with scrolls and foliage. The dark, patina finish gives them an antique look and a textured depth. Perfect for adding a touch of grandeur and history to a marble or wood fireplace, or as a standalone decorative element on a console table, these chenets are eye-catching pieces of furniture.
