They come in all shapes and sizes. Can be a stand-alone, see through or old fashioned. They are made of wood, bricks, mortar or stone. The can have huge mantel pieces or can be flush with the wall. Yes you have guessed it, we are are talking about fireplaces and especially Fireplace Screens.
It doesn’t really matter what type of fireplace you have, it goes without saying that yours must have the proper screen to protect your furniture and fixtures from those pesky embers and sparks we get from fire. You can go for the ultra mod screen or the vintage look, the sky is the limit here, because they are so decorative these days.
To have a fireplace in ones home is regarded as being lucky, as not only does it create warmth, but also gives the home character as well. There is nothing that beats a good fire when it’s really cold outside. Just sit and stare at the flames as they dance and jump and try to reach into the chimney while unwinding from a hard day’s work.
You could spend hours choosing one as creativity is endless in this regard. Different materials like; copper, brass, glass or cast iron are used and combined with patterns and motifs, become magnificent pieces of art. Many designers would create their screens looking antique as if they just arrived from an ancient castle or villa.
Many are made with panels which are adjustable so that you can have a better view of the fire itself. Some are three sided solid panels which can only be placed in one position. There are of course those that can fold up and be stored while the fireplace is being cleaned. The functionality of the screens today is very helpful in modern times.
Screens today can adjust in a way for you to get optimum enjoyment from your fireplace. There are ones with hinged panels or solid panels. They come in different heights and different designs. There are designs that cleverly hide the unsightly ashes and then there are ones that have only glass panels with a copper frame.
Buying the right screen for your fireplace can help it esthetically, and keep the dirt contained. Some people choose to have multiple Fireplace Screens so they can change their decor with some screens for casual use, and others that come out on special occasions or holidays.
