Product description
This 1960s fireplace tool set is a notable example of artisanal wrought iron work. The structure features a markedly sculptural silhouette, standing out for its gilded finish over the dark iron, which provides a visible and authentic patina. The stand rests on three robust, curved legs that end in scrolls, providing a stable yet decorative base. The central post displays meticulous twisted work (torsade), a design detail that is repeated in the tool handles, aesthetically unifying the set. The set consists of four essential pieces: shovel, poker, tongs, and brush. Each tool hangs from individualized hooks that also feature organic, curled shapes at their ends. The hand-forged nature is evident in the deliberate irregularities and texture of the metal, underscoring its non-industrial character. This set combines the robustness of the material with an ornamental aesthetic that evokes traditional designs, but executed with a mid-century sensibility.
