Elegant and understated mid-century modern fireplace tool set featuring three solid blackened-iron tools — shovel, poker, and brush — each capped with angled cylindrical brass handles. The combination of dark matte iron and polished brass embodies the refined modern aesthetic popular in the 1950s–60s.
The angled handle ends add a sculptural note, while the minimalist triangular shovel head and Y-form poker echo designs attributed to Donald Deskey for Bennett Co., as well as similar modernist lines from Pilgrim and Seymour Manufacturing. Though unsigned, this set aligns closely with the architectural brass-accented hearthware produced in New York and California during that era.
Ideal for collectors of mid-century design or anyone seeking a functional yet sculptural accent for the modern fireplace.
