Fireplace tool holders
Fireplace tools, including fire tongs, pokers, fireplace shovels, and blowpipes, can be placed in or against the fireplace. However, they are prone to easily toppling over. To prevent this, you can use a fireplace tool holder such as a rack or hanger, stand, rests or a bucket. These fire tool holders not only provide stability but also serve a decorative function. Below, you can browse our selection of fireplace tool holders categorized by size, material, price, style, age, and origin. Don't forget to check out: What fireplace tools do you need?
Notice the craftsmanship
Antique fireplace tool holders are often meticulously crafted, showcasing exceptional skill and artistry. Their construction involves a level of intricacy and attention to detail rarely found in modern counterparts. In addition to their aesthetic appeal, antique holders are significantly more durable, having withstood the test of time. They are built to last for generations, making them a valuable investment.
Choose the right fireplace tool holder
Our collection offers three types of fireplace tool holders: hangers or racks, rests and stands. Fireplace tool racks or hangers are racks with hooks or pegs designed to hang fireplace tools. They are typically mounted on the wall beside the fireplace or wood stove and are ideal for smaller tools. Fireplace tool rests consist of two short supports on which tools can be placed, offering adjustable length to accommodate various tool sizes. Fireplace tool stands feature a tray and rod configuration with a half-moon shape to securely hold tools, offering easy accessibility and stability.
Fireplace tool holders originate from England, France, or the Netherlands. While designs may vary slightly by country, French holders often include decorative elements, while Dutch ones are known for their simplicity. You can select holders based on their country of origin.
Consider the size of the fire tool holder
The size of the fireplace tool holder should match the number and dimensions of your fireplace tools. For fireplace tool racks, ensure there are enough hooks for all your tools. For fire tool stands, consider both the length and material for stability and durability. Select holders based on their length and width to accommodate your specific needs.
Appreciate the decorative aspect
An antique fireplace tool set holder not only serves a practical purpose but also adds aesthetic charm to your fireplace or wood stove. When choosing a holder, consider its compatibility with your overall decor style and other fireplace accessories. Pay attention to details such as design, material, and finish, with options ranging from wrought iron to brass or steel. Whether polished or unpolished, a well-chosen holder can enhance the visual appeal of your fireplace.
