W&W Antiques

Online only, based in stunning Speyside, Moray, Scotland, we (Mr & Mrs W) are passionate about quality antique items with great design and evident craft, predominantly from the 18th, 19th and early 20th century.
In particular, we enjoy period items reflecting the beautiful design and aesthetic changes from the decorative arts, from circa 1850 - 1960. Including the Aesthetic Movement, Art Nouveau, Arts & Crafts Movement (In particular of Scottish origin), Modernism, Art Deco and Streamlining. We also enjoy the great craft and quality construction in folk art and vernacular items from across Europe. In particular, Scandinavian decorative items from the 18th and 19th Century. We enjoy being analytical in our approach and supporting our stock with background research, provenance and history through researching the items, the period, designers and retailers.
We often hunt the country from our Scottish location, but routinely search from Lancashire and Yorkshire as well as buying trips further afield to supply items online. We also like to take on items that particularly interest us from earlier periods, dependent on our fascination for an object.
We are always learning, and happy to share knowledge gained, so please do get in touch. Thanks for viewing our selection of stock, we are always pleased to see items pass through our hands to new owners and homes as antiques remain a great green recyclable purchase!

Description
Available from W&W Antiques is a very well made Scottish vernacular 'Brander' Iron from the late 18th or first half of the 19th Century.
- A blacksmith made, wrought iron gridiron of simple form with straight bars set through two end pieces with a sinuous shaped handle (the only decorative adornment) and end loop for hanging when not in use.
- These brander irons were used for simple domestic cooking directly over the embers of a fire. The brander would have been used for cooking meat, fish or oatcakes over the fire.
- The 'brander iron' also gives its name and distinctive linear shape to many of the simple Scottish vernacular brander-back chairs noted with the vertical back splat design being referred to as similar to the gridiron. W&W Antiques have in stock and have stocked many examples of brander-back armchairs and side chairs.
- In solid antique condition ready for use or ornament in a new home. *Scottish creepie or side table, not included in the sale item, for context and decorative purpose only.
