What are black iron fire irons?

Black iron fire irons are heavy metal tools used for managing coal and wood fires in open hearths. They include pokers, shovels and tongs forged to withstand high temperatures during daily use.

How do I use a fire basket?

A fire basket sits inside the fireplace opening to hold fuel safely off the hearth floor. It allows air to circulate underneath the burning wood or coal for a cleaner burn.

What is the difference between cast and wrought iron?

Cast iron is poured into moulds to create rigid forms with detailed ornamentation. Wrought iron is worked by hand with a hammer, producing fibrous metal that bends rather than snaps.

How do I style fire irons by the hearth?

Fire irons are traditionally arranged beside the fireplace using a companion stand or hung from a fender. They bring functional period character to Victorian, Georgian and Arts and Crafts interiors.
