firedog
Log-holding metal bracket
A firedog is a metal support for holding logs in a fireplace, also called an andiron.
Firedogs typically come in pairs, one on each side of the hearth, keeping wood elevated for better airflow and combustion.
They often have decorative fronts facing the room: ornate brass firedogs flanked the hearth.
