Brass Horse-Head Fireplace Tool Set & Stand – Custom Decor Inc., 1980

Vintage hearth elegance meets equestrian flair in this five-piece solid-brass fireplace tool set, cast in 1980 by Custom Decor Inc. Each tool is crowned with a finely modeled horse head—complete with flowing mane and alert ears—while the heavy, deco-motif base keeps the ensemble balanced beside your firebox. Rich golden patina, sculptural silhouettes, and fully functional tools make it equal parts décor statement and fireside workhorse.
