The design emphasizes clean, linear geometry with minimal ornamentation, giving it an architectural sensibility.
• Includes: shovel, poker, and brush (or broom) — all in solid brass — plus the original wall-mount bracket.
• Each tool features a smooth tapering shaft with a small series of bead/knurled detail near the base (where the tool meets the mount).
• The wall mount complements the tools perfectly — streamlined and made for clean, elegant display above or beside a hearth.

Dimensions & Weight (approximate):
• Each tool: ~25″ long
• Wall bracket: width 10″
• Weight: substantial solid brass — feels heavy and high quality

Based on style, mounting approach, and finish, this set likely dates to the 1950s–1960s, during the heyday of mid-century modern hearth accessories.

Wall-mounted fireplace tool sets in brass & iron were relatively popular in that period. For example, designers such as Mel Bogart produced wall-mounted iron & brass sets in the early 1950s. 

Donald Deskey also designed wall-mounted brass and iron fire tools for Bennett Co. in the mid–20th century. 
While your set lacks a visible signature (unless hidden on the bracket or tool shaft), the simplicity and functional elegance evoke the mid-century modern aesthetic popular in designer hearth sets of the era. See less
