Fire
Baskets & Fire Dogs
The first
fireplaces in Tudor homes consisted of a pair of fire dogs which raised
the ends of the burning logs to improve the burning efficiency. By the
18th century the first fire baskets came into use which helped to
contain and manage the fire, improving efficiency. We carry a large
range of original fire baskets and fire dogs. We also supply a wide range
of new ones, some of which are shown below. Typically we sell new
'swans nest' fire baskets to go with the fire dogs, available
in a variety of widths ranging from 24" to 42".
