Fire irons are hand-forged tools designed to manage open hearth fires, traditionally comprising a poker for adjusting logs, tongs for moving hot coals, and a shovel for ash clearance.

Victorian examples were predominantly constructed from wrought iron, polished steel, or cast brass, featuring lathe-turned knopped handles and decorative pierced shovel blades.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-forged joinery, subtle weight imbalances from manual casting, hand-turned knopping along the shafts, and natural age-related oxidisation.

These steel tools can be placed directly on a modern stone hearth or alongside a wood-burning stove to provide texture and historical contrast within contemporary spaces.

Maintain steel surfaces by cleaning gently with extra-fine steel wool and applying a coat of microcrystalline wax to prevent rust while preserving the established patina.
