Type of Object:
    Forger's Tool

    A work of art in their design and contour, these
    antique blacksmith`s tongs are made from forged iron.
    This is a very large old forger's tool.

    Used by metallurgists, and passed down from
    generation to generation.  Metallurgy is a revered
    profession, on a parallel with Divination, due to its
    connection with the unexplained.

    The colour is red and mottled, with pitted surface.
