Note the craftsmanship

Antique fireplace pokers showcase remarkable craftsmanship, being hand-forged with time, skill, and creativity. Not only do they boast an elegant design, but these tools are also more durable than modern versions, having proven their longevity over time. Designed to endure, they offer years of reliable use.

Choose which type of fireplace poker you need

Fireplace pokers mainly originate from England, the Netherlands, and occasionally France. English pokers tend to be large, decorative, and finely crafted. They may be made of wrought iron, polished brass, or steel. In contrast, Dutch pokers are smaller, typically less ornate, and crafted from wrought iron or brass, sometimes featuring a hook for ease of use. French fireplace pokers are rarely seen because the French fireplace tongs, which do not have a hinge and are rather stiff in use, can also be very effectively used as a poker. Our collection allows selection based on the country of origin.

Consider the length of the fireplace poker

The ideal poker length depends on the fireplace size and fire magnitude. It should be long enough to safely manage the fire, with options available to select based on length.

Think about how you want to store the fireplace poker

Proper storage near the fireplace or wood stove ensures the poker is readily available. Storage solutions vary, from casual placement in or near the fireplace to more discreet options like racks or stands, which offer aesthetic appeal and functionality, including ash collection.

Pay attention to the decorative function of the fireplace poker

Antique fireplace pokers can significantly enhance decor, reflecting exquisite craftsmanship. When selecting, consider the style and material that best complement your fireplace and accessories. Options include wrought iron, brass, or steel, in polished or unpolished finishes. For additional tips, read: How do I decorate my fireplace?. Selections can be made based on style and material.
