1. Title: Vintage Fire Poker from the Victorian Era: A Polished Steel Masterpiece by H & W Turner, Sheffield (1843) 2. Description: This image showcases a beautifully preserved fire poker from the Victorian era, dating back to 1843. The poker, part of a set that includes tongs and a shovel, boasts a cast polished steel body with a twisted brass handle and a floral finial. The intricately designed brass handle adds an elegant touch to the functional tool, while the floral finial adds a decorative element. The poker, registered with the lozenge mark and the letter 'H', is a testament to its rich history and provenance. It is believed to have been crafted by H & W Turner, a renowned Sheffield-based manufacturer known for their high-quality metalwork during the 19th century. The company's reputation for excellence is reflected in the meticulous craftsmanship of this poker. The poker's vertical orientation, set against a plain white background, highlights its timeless design and the contrast between the smooth, polished steel and the textured brass. The image, captured in a studio setting, offers a single, detailed view of this exquisite piece, allowing viewers to appreciate its intricacies and the craftsmanship of the era. 3.
