A fireplace companion set in a traditional Georgian style, comprising a shovel with a brass blade, a pair of tongs, a poker with a hooked end, and a hearth brush. Each tool is fitted with a turned brass baluster-form handle. The tools are suspended from a central stand which features a circular weighted stepped base and a turned brass stem. The stem terminates in a four-way hanging bracket topped with a matching brass finial. The shafts and functional ends of the tongs, poker, and brush are constructed from iron with a dark finish. Condition: The set is in used condition with visible tarnish and surface oxidation on the brass components, most notably the handles and base. The iron shafts and tool heads show soot and ash residue. The bristles of the brush are worn and matted. One tool shaft exhibits a slight misalignment. A green adhesive inventory label is present on the top finial.
