Set consists of shovel, brush, angled poker and stand, which the brass armature supports, have a unique design, with a flex or bend suspension form, via the design esthetic, as form and function goes to them. The supports are connected via the glass and supported thru to the base bottom below the glass, by 3 linear, solid and heavy, square shaped brass bars, whereupon the connectivity of the brass screws hence, tightened secure the supports to which the tools are able to hang and flex while withstanding the weight of the tools hanging not these linear uprights.
