A wrought iron companion set in a traditional English rustic style, featuring a central stand and a collection of hearth tools. The stand is constructed with a central shaft topped by a decorative twisted cage finial and a scrolled upper frame with four integrated hooks. The set includes a poker, a pair of tongs, a three-pronged fire fork, and a hearth brush, each featuring loop handles for hanging. The metalwork is finished in a dark patina with traces of gold-toned decorative highlights. A circular orange auction sticker marked 409 is adhered to the frame. No maker marks or inscriptions are visible.
Condition report:
The set is in used, functional condition. There is visible surface wear and oxidation throughout the metalwork. Significant loss to the gold-coloured finish is evident, revealing the dark metal beneath. Accumulations of dust and soot residue are present, consistent with age and previous use.
