Fireplace tools add to the decor of your hearth as well as being a functional tool. The four common tools found in fireplace tool sets are, pokers, tongs, broom and shovel. Fireplace pokers and tongs are both used for moving burning firewood logs and coals around in your fireplace or stove.
Burning wood can be messy so having a broom to clean up the debris that accumulates around a fireplace or wood stove not only helps the aesthetics, it also keeps flammable material from accumulating which could catch fire from a spark or burning ember.
