Fireplace shovel

Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image displays two brass or gold-colored metal objects with intricate designs, lying on a textured surface, possibly bubble wrap. One object has a flat, rectangular end with a cutout design resembling a flower or cross, while the other features a two-pronged fork-like end with decorative elements. Both objects have loops at one end, allowing them to be tied together with a white string that secures a small tag. The tag, attached through the loops, bears handwritten numbers "575/9261" and letters "A & B," which could indicate an inventory or cataloging system, suggesting these objects might be part of a collection or exhibit.
