Fire dog

Idhund from Korbo made of cast iron and designed by the duo Broberg & Ridderståle

With a fire dog, the wood rises from the surface, which provides better draft and ensures that the fire burns longer and more evenly. In addition, a fire dog will reduce contact with the surface, so it does not easily leave marks in the fireplace.

The parts are cast by hand in sand molds - using traditional craft techniques. The sand molds are made anew for each casting, which means that the parts may vary slightly in shape.

Broberg & Ridderståle works with both architecture and design. They are inspired by everyday life, are based in Stockholm and have received several awards for their work.
