Product Insights
The Blomus Ashi Fireplace Accessory Set offers award-winning studio kaschkasch design with FSC-certified oak handles and magnetic attachment for flush storage, each tool sold separately as a replacement part to extend its life, priced at $509 CAD as a 'Bestseller'—but it is strictly for indoor use due to its sealed coating and monochrome finish that cannot withstand outdoor humidity.

An integrated magnet in the wooden handles ensures that the tools stay securely fixed to the holder and always look neatly stored away.
blomus.comThis magnetic attachment eliminates rings and brackets, so the set forms a clean sculptural shape with no visible hardware.
- Magnet strength
Magnets keep tools secure even when the stand is bumped or moved.

- FSC certification

Made from 100% FSC®-certified wood
blomus.com. This certification from the Forest Stewardship Council requires independent audits to ensure the wood originates from forests managed to prohibit illegal logging, protect high-conservation areas, and respect Indigenous and workers' rights.

- Repairability
Every tool and stand are available as separate replacement parts.
Why this is supported
Blomus details that
every tool and the T-stand as separate replacement parts
How ASHI compares to other designer fireplace sets — individual_spare_parts, making it possible to replace a single component rather than the whole set. This extends the useful life of the FSC-certified handles and aligns with a reduction in material waste, uncommon in this category.
- Brush

Why this is supported
The brush can be replaced without discarding the handle; the manufacturer offers a standalone replacement for €39.95:

- Cleaning
A damp cloth suffices for cleaning without damaging the finish.
Why this is supported

For gentle cleaning, please use a damp cloth.

Sealed coating prevents rust from ash; indoor use only.
Why this is supported
