How Much is a Wrought Iron Log?
Finding the Right Fireplace-tools-chimney-pots for You
If your chilly winter nights are largely spent warming up by the fireplace, you’re going to need a set of antique or vintage fireplace tools and chimney pots to keep things tidy.
There’s something intrinsically primal yet comforting about having a fire in one’s home. A fire in a fabulous antique fireplace brings warmth, both literal and intangible, to a living room, den or bedroom. On a cold, snowy night, there is nothing quite so satisfying as having a warm cup of mulled wine and watching the flames dance in golden splendor.
Of course, one needs the accompanying accoutrements to keep a fireplace orderly. However, newly minted tools may not match the carefully considered decor and specific furniture style that you had in mind for your space. Fortunately, antique and vintage fireplace tools were so well made that they still work decades later. These pieces also have the added benefit of being quite stylish and elegant in their design so they won’t stand out in a minimalist space.
Andirons keep the logs off the floor of the fireplace so air can better circulate and keep the fire bright. An andiron, importantly, will prevent a burning log from rolling out of a fireplace and keep a fire burning evenly as well as prevent any mess from accumulating. Some andirons are simple iron brackets to elevate the wood, but others are more ornate baskets that introduce a touch of luxury to the fireplace.
Chimney pots are extensions added to the top of a smokestack. They’re completely visible from your home’s exterior, so choose one that you love. We like a tapered terracotta version. A chimney pot will elongate the chimney as well as help draft air to keep a fire alight. It may also prevent smoke from billowing around the room, which is, of course, extremely hazardous to your health. A fire’s smoke will also damage your furniture as well as any adjacent art. Smoke and soot can stain, leaving things to look dreary and dark. Chimney pots were very popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, and Victorian-era chimney pots still make for an attractive addition to contemporary homes.
We can all agree that a fireplace is going to elevate your space. To complete the look, find a collection of antique and vintage fireplace tools and chimney pots today on 1stDibs.
- What is wrought-iron furniture?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Wrought iron is a highly refined iron alloy that is tough, malleable, corrosion resistant and easily welded. It is no longer produced on a commercial scale. Many items, including garden furniture, referred to today as wrought iron are actually made of mild steel. They are called wrought iron because they resemble objects that in the past were “wrought” by hand, rather than cast.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
No, wrought iron is not stronger than steel.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024To tell if wrought iron is Woodard, examine its frame closely. Authentic pieces usually have the Woodard name embossed right onto the metal. Instead of embossing, some pieces display the brand name on a metal tag. For assistance with identifying a piece of wrought iron furniture, seek the help of a certified appraiser or licensed dealer. Explore an assortment of Woodard wrought iron furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024To tell if wrought iron is an antique, first check to see if there are any maker's marks on the piece. By researching these marks using trusted online resources, you can typically determine who produced a piece of furniture and when they were active and producing furnishings similar to yours. If the company was in business and crafting similar pieces 100 years ago or more, then the wrought iron table, chair or other item may be an antique. However, if the business opened recently or the style was offered more recently than a century ago, your item is likely not antique. If you cannot locate a maker's mark, inspect your furniture closely. Antique pieces often show signs of handcrafting, such as slight imperfections or irregularities. Also, antique wrought iron often has signs of wear, such as pitting in the metal or scratches due to age. If you're still uncertain whether your item is antique, you can ask a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer to date it. Shop an assortment of antique wrought iron furniture on 1stDibs.
- Are wrought iron doors safe?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021Yes, homes are significantly safer with wrought iron doors. Because of their durability, they are a good option to protect your home. In unsavory weather conditions, wrought iron entries can protect your home from the damage caused by debris and objects, and they are strong enough to deter burglars. Find a variety of wrought iron doors on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Modern wrought iron furniture is often made out of a type of carbon steel called mild steel that artisans work by hand. Vintage and antique wrought iron pieces are usually a genuine iron alloy. On 1stDibs, find a range of wrought iron furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Unlike cast iron, wrought iron is not brittle and will bend rather than break. Wrought ironwork is produced with a hammer and anvil and tends to be more intricate than cast ironwork, which is characterized by repetitive designs that can be carved into a wooden pattern and cast.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024Yes, many experts state that wrought iron patio furniture is good. The metal is durable enough to withstand the effects of weather exposure and remains sturdy even with frequent wear. In addition, wrought iron is relatively easy to clean and maintain. Many people also love the appearance of the metal. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of wrought iron patio furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertJuly 30, 2024One way to tell if wrought iron furniture is vintage is to look for markings that indicate who produced it. Markings may appear on the underside, back and legs of wrought iron tables and chairs. You can then use trusted online resources to determine when the maker was active and producing pieces similar to yours. Consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer if you can't find markings or have difficulty dating a piece.
Walter Lamb’s adventurous works and those of other mid-century designers noted for their seminal outdoor furniture — a list that includes Hendrik Van Keppel and Taylor Green, Russell Woodard, Maurizio Tempestini for John B. Salterini and Richard Schultz for Knoll — is often found among the offerings of 1stDibs dealers.
In colder regions, wrought iron, which can be left outdoors all year round, was the material of choice in outdoor furniture designs for the Atomic Age.
Shop a variety of vintage wrought iron furniture on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024Yes, vintage wrought iron may be worth something. Collectors often seek pieces from notable makers like Russell Woodward, Salterini and Meadowcraft. In addition to the maker, the style, type, age and condition will also contribute to the potential value of a wrought iron piece. For assistance with the valuation process, consult a certified appraiser or experienced antiques dealer. Shop a range of vintage wrought iron furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Wipe the surface with a sponge or cloth soaked in a solution of water and dish soap, then rinse with pure water and allow to dry.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023The difference between wrought iron and steel railings lies in the materials used to produce them. Wrought iron is made entirely from iron, while steel combines iron and carbon. Shop a selection of decorative railings on 1stDibs.
