Pine Tree and Shaker Style House andirons c. 1920’s

H: 22 1/2″ x W: 20 1/2″ x D: 16″
This pair of extraordinary andirons are a unique expression of American Folk Art at it’s best. The tall tree form resembles a towering carved wood version of a pine tree in 1 1/2″ thick cast iron and the Shaker Style house with a classic pitched roof and chimney has four “windows” that light up when the fire is roaring from behind. These are a substantial and gutsy design and are a very rare find in the world of Americana.
