Fireplace Gloves

Fireplace gloves are very affordable, usually less than $40. Considering the level of protection offered this is a real steal. As you begin your search for the right set of gloves, you will find a number of great choices. However, one of the more popular types of fireplace gloves currently available is longer. That means in addition to just being provided protection for the hands and wrists, your arms and sleeves are also protected.

With these longer fireplace gloves, you actually have 20 inches of protection. Made from heavy-duty insulated material or split cowhide with reinforced seams, the gloves will last for a long time. Although you can find fireplace gloves in various sizes and colors, rust and back are the most common. You can keep your gloves with your other fireplace accessories, quickly slipping them on to avoid becoming burned by picking up a hot poker or adjusting a log.

For less than $20, you might consider fireplace gloves made from 100% side split leather with wool felt lining. These gloves are 12 inches long, feature a hoop for hanging have a 4.5-inch gauntlet, welted fingers, and reinforced seams, making them a flexible choice for loading hot stoves or even the removal of ash. You can find these gloves in the longer arm length if you prefer, which generally measures about 20 inches.

Another possibility for fireplace gloves is sometimes referred to as “wood burners gloves”. This design allows you to work around hot stoves and fireplaces without worry of being burned. Made as extra heavy-duty insulating gloves, these too are made from split cowhide with reinforced seams.  Perhaps you might go with 18-inch fireplace gloves, which also provide protection further up the arm. Made from heavy leather, you get excellent coverage with cotton lining on the inside for the ultimate in comfort.
