Many years ago, bellows were used to start or keep
a fire burning by providing puffs of air. In addition to being
functional, bellows are also a wonderful accessory for any
fireplace, regardless of style. If you know of someone that recently
moved into a new home with a fireplace, this would make an ideal
housewarming gift.
Bellows come in various sizes and a multitude of designs. Some are
very simple and perfect for a more conservative fireplace while
other bellows have gorgeous hand-painted designs. With the
remarkable creativity, you will discover designs that include
special features by cutting, inlaying, and painting using
three-dimensional art. Keep in mind that most of the painted bellows
are one of a kind and often signed by the artist.
After the bellow has been created, tung oil is used to enhance the
richness of the natural wood. Depending on the size bellow you
purchase, you will find bags that hold from two to five ounces of
air. The bag portion of the bellow is constructed of leather, is
durable, and able to produce a strong puff of air. Some bellows
provide a nice rawhide lace tie to the handle, which is perfect for
display on your fireplace.
To coordinate with your room's décor, artists create a huge
selection from which you can choose. Most collections are amazing
have been designing bellows for many years, creating each with its
own style. If you are looking for a bargain, visit a fireplace store
and check for specials on overstock, discontinued models, and
factory seconds.
Now instead of worrying about your fire dwindling, you can simply
reach for your bellow, drawn in air, and bring a smouldering fire
back to life. Although no longer a necessity as in earlier years,
people still like the nostalgia provided. |
