They have a wonderful patina and verdigris accents. The "dolphins" fish creatures are the focal point with a torch on the top of the pole they are wrapped around. The legs are very heavy thick cast iron. The base where the "dolphin" sits is a lovely scrolled and swaged acanthus design.
These would be from England in the early 19th Century, most likely around 1830s. They measure a stately 24 inches tall x 20 inches deep x 11 inches wide. These are in the George IV style and are in very good Condition and wear is better then one would think due to just the shear age of them!
They will be shipped FedEx and insured along with packed excellently to arrive at their new home in the same Condition as you see in my pictures! So please no PO Boxes and will need to be signed for upon delivery. These weigh a total of 38 lbs! less
