About this item
This is a hand crafted leafy style fire poker that I have made in my blacksmiths forge in Scotland. it starts with just a plain length of round steel and the first heat in the dorge is used to create the leaf on the end of the bar. I do this at the anvil free hand with a hand hammer so each leaf comes out looking unique from one another. then I thin down the stem of the leaf and wrap it around into a loop shape and use the extra length to wrap around the fire poker organically like a vine in nature would wrap round trees. then finally I forge a point on the other end of the bar to help moving wood around in the fire. the poker is finished in a clearcoat lacquer and is around 52 centimeters long from the top of the handle to the point on the other end. These can be made longer if needed just message me Thank you
