Item History
This piece is an authentic vintage example of fireside hearth tools dating back to the late 19th to early 20th century (Victorian or Edwardian era). Tools featuring specialized claw and talon ends were popular throughout the UK and Europe during this period to marry everyday utility with the highly ornate design trends of the era.
