Fireside tool sets also known as companion sets provide the essential tools needed to safely and efficiently manage an open fire or log burner.

They ensure you can tend the fire, maintain an efficient burn, and keep the surrounding area tidy without getting too close to the heat.

Our tools are primarily constructed from durable materials such as wrought iron, steel, and brass, often featuring handles made of materials like solid brass, polished wood, or finished metal. Specific material details are listed on each product page.

The size of your tool set should be proportionate to your fireplace opening. Tools should be long enough to allow you to tend the fire comfortably and safely without having to lean too far into the opening. Generally, a larger fireplace requires longer tools. Each dimension is listed on individual product listings.

For optimal appearance and performance, we recommend cleaning your fireside tools after every few uses, or whenever ash and soot buildup becomes noticeable. Regular dusting is always encouraged.

For simple dusting, use a soft cloth. For heavier soot and ash, a stiff-bristled brush or a slightly damp rag can be effective. Ensure the tools are completely cool before cleaning.

Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the finish. Mild soap and water can be used sparingly on certain metal finishes, but dry immediately.

• Poker: Used to move and adjust burning logs and embers to control the fire.
• Shovel/Pan: Used for scooping up ashes and embers once the fire has completely cooled.
• Brush: Used to sweep up fine ash and debris from the hearth.
• Tongs: Used for safely picking up and placing logs, kindling, or coals.

Each set can vary, please check the product description for more information on what is included in your set.

(Never use a brush on hot ash. Wait until the fire is completely out and the ashes are cool before using the brush or shovel. Sweeping hot ash can damage the brush bristles and poses a significant fire hazard, as embers can be scattered.)
