These fan like transoms are usually found above doorways in Old San Juan Puerto Rico--vast majority are made from wood and vary in ornamentation--the fact this one is hand forged wrought iron is unusual--size is 43 inches wide and 23 inches high--iron is heavy gauge--there is rust and paint loss--but who cares-as is it conveys the past--no parts broken or repaired--used locally as wall decorations in home or patio--or cleaned up- build it in over a door or window and let the air flow thru---one like this locally made today with very little quality would cost over 1000.00

You never find cast iron finials this form and size--looks like they came from Aladdins castle or Kremlin turrets or a Tasty Freeze stand-the pair are each 15.5 inches high-have a 5.75 inch square base-original paint has been removed-what remains is traces of rust colored paint--were cast in two pieces and welded together--it took a skilled welder to do the job--about 80 or 90 years old--need paint-make them as exotic as you wish--great doorstops for great doors-heavy
