PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This modernist fireplace companion set comprises four tools — poker, tongs, shovel, and brush — suspended from a slender central stand topped with a cruciform bracket. Each implement is executed in black lacquered metal with chrome accents, and the poker and tongs are distinguished by boldly geometric diamond-shaped heads that announce the set’s uncompromising commitment to modernist form.
The interplay between the matte black lacquer of the shafts and the reflective chrome of the stand base and fittings creates a refined visual contrast, characteristic of the design-forward interiors of the 1960s and 1970s. The square base provides a stable platform while echoing the angular vocabulary of the tool heads, unifying the composition from base to finial.
French designers of the post-war decades produced companion sets of this type for the luxury interior market, drawing on the geometric abstraction of mid-century modernism to reinvent the traditional fireside set. The present example is distinguished by the quality of its lacquer, the precision of its chrome fittings, and the visual coherence of its overall design.
Dimensions: W. 20.5 × D. 20.5 × H. 80.5 cm.
