Antique Furniture Direct

Description

A rare set of antique late Victorian arts and crafts fire bellows by Liberty & Co dating from circa 1900. Great quality craftsmanship, solid hand carved oak with woven leatherwork and a brass nozzle. The front beautifully carved with Celtic Green Man, the long handles carved with trailing vine motif. The handle has two leather loops, one to keep the bellows closed, the other to hang the bellows on the wall. In good antique condition, great patina and in fully working order. Possibly designed by Archibald Knox, as similar bellows of this period have been attributed to his designs.
