Firewood holders
Log holders, designed to store logs beside the fireplace, serve as both practical and decorative elements. Crafted from materials like brass, copper, or a mix, they often come with wrought iron handles, adding to their charm.
Fireplace cooking utensils
Historically, the fireplace was a cooking space, utilizing tools such as pot hooks, trivets, grills, roasting racks, forks, ladles, skimmers, and waffle irons. Today, these ancient utensils offer a unique culinary experience for those cooking over an open flame.
Size matters
The functionality of fireplace tools and cookware is significantly influenced by their size. Smaller fires benefit from smaller tools, while larger fires necessitate bigger implements. Choose wood holders based on the size of logs you use, from large logs to kindling. Your personal preference plays a role, so verify the dimensions provided on our website to ensure satisfaction.
Style
Our collection spans from 17th-century rustic, Gothic-style fireplace tools to more ornate options reflecting various historical periods, including Baroque, Neoclassical, Neo-styles, Art Nouveau / Art Deco, and Modern. The style of wood holders and cooking utensils typically matches that of the tools. Whether you prefer a harmonious look or a mix-and-match approach, the choice of style is deeply personal and can significantly enhance your fireplace's aesthetic.
