Charles II Style Armorial Firedogs, Brass
Cast Iron, England, 1890
Located in Brighton, West Sussex
A pair of Charles II style, enamel brass and cast iron armorial firedogs, in the manner of Anthony Hatch and Stephen Pilcherd.
Each firedog is decorated with red, blue and white enamel, the upperpart bearing the arms of Charles II or James II, the middle part formed of two nude male figures supporting the arms with a vase of flowers between them, the lower portions in the form of two convex disks decorated with flowers, with wrought iron supports.
They are modelled after an example in the collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, formerly belonging to the Earl of Cowley. For a long time, their method of production -whereby the fields to be enameled were cast in the original moulds and not, as was more common, engraved (champlévé) or enclosed (cloisonné) - was referred to as Surrey Enamels after the author Charles R. Beard ascribed their manufacture to a factory in Esher, Surrey. However, documentary evidence makes a strong case for their reattribution to the London workshops of Anthony Hatch and Stephen Pilcherd, members of the Armourers' and Braziers' Company (see C. Blair and A. Petterson, 'Details for Surrey Enamels Reattributed (Part 1)', Journal of the Antique Metalware...

Pair of Gilt Bronze Regency Firedogs, Attributed To Thomas Hope. England Ca 1803
By Thomas Hope
Located in Incline Village, NV
These firedogs (as they were referred to), while not really serving any utility, would have been used as decoration to enhance the visual aesthetics of the hearth, by being placed one to each side of the fireplace opening. I have attached 20 images to this listing. The last image shows how they would have been used in a fireplace setting.
These highly ornate pair of gilt bronze firedogs are quite important and were, more than likely, the design of Thomas Hope (1769-1831), who created elaborate and innovative decorations whose features were influenced by his extensive travel through the Near East, Turkey, Egypt, Greece, and Europe, over a ten year period. He was the foremost interior designer during the Regency period and developed luxurious surroundings for his two lavish London residences during the early 19th century. They were decorated with items of his own design, along with those he had accumulated and collected during his travels. He introduced to the British aristocracy the term "interior design". In terms of collecting, and the acquisition of fine art...
