Fireplace Bellows--Goncalo Alves & Lacewood

Description

With this design, we were looking to spice up our Original Fireplace Bellows a bit. This gives us an opportunity to play with and show off some of the more exotic and unusual wood species that aren't usually used in utilitarian items. We spend a lot of time and care in choosing the woods and trying different combinations to create something eyecatching. We also changed the nozzle from copper to brass to give these bellows an extra flash. We make them from a variety of hardwoods, always trying to create the best looking combinations. This version is made of birdseye maple and goncalo alves (tigerwood). We finish the wood with tung oil. The bag consists of 2-3 ounce leather, very supple and able to produce a strong draft. We build the bellows with a strong steel hinge (covered by the leather) for dependability and a long life. They come with a rawhide lace tied to the handle, making them easy to display. They measure 20-1/4" long, 7-3/8" wide, 5" deep when open, and 2" deep when closed. If there is a particular pairing you are looking for, please contact us. We will be happy to make you a pair of fireplace bellows in any combination you would like.
