About Herring Bros.

Herring Bros. was an English maker of carving tools, working in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The recorded sales are all carving gouges and chisels, which is the work the firm is known for, including numbered sweeps such as the no. 29 spoon gouge and unusual profiles like a gull wing. Boxwood handles in original, uncracked condition help, as do wide sizes like the 1 1/4 inch spoon gouge and clear numbering on the blade. Heavy pitting, a shortened blade from repeated regrinding, or a replaced handle pull an example down.
