These fireplace tools are made up of sturdy iron 20x20 mm rear shanks and decorative, fire-tapered upright guard bars, inspired by the famous candles of blanton. It is entirely handmade of wrought iron, with the black fund and silver finish. The design recalls the ancient art of ironworking, and the pleasure to enjoy a warm and enveloping fire. The andirons help to keep raising the wood from the base of the fireplace allowing better oxygenation and combustion and to keep logs from rolling out of your fireplace as they burn.
