Wrought iron fire place hanger

Antique Dutch wrought iron kitchen fire place hanger with a flat sheet-iron ratchet attachment looking like a coarse saw

The lowest end of the upright has a closed loop from which hangs the hook that catches one of the teeth of the ratchet

The hanger can thus be set either high or low, according to the liveliness of the fire or the degree of heat required for the cooking
