Bronze Fireplace Screen

For every fireplace, it needs an enclosure such as a screen or panel to prevent sparks from crackling out of place. These enclosures also help serve as a barrier for people or pets who may get too close to a burning fire. There are many different kinds of screens, including those made from glass and wrought iron. For a charming ages old look, consider a bronze fireplace screen. Although most of the time these fireplace accessories won't be crafted from pure bronze they will look as though they were. The look is one of gleaming warmth often distressed to appear aged.


Bronze is a material onto which a natural patina forms over time. The patina is a sign of age but adds a distinguished quality to the metal. Often you'll notice wrought iron bronze screens with intricate scrollwork that have a weathered look about them. Many of these screens look old but are actually brand new and can be ordered from a variety of online retailers or purchased from many hardware and home improvement stores. Whether your taste is simple or intricate there is a bronze screen for you.

The majority of fireplace screens fold at least three times. Some of them have more than three folding panels. Then there are flat panel screens, which have zero folds and fit right over the fireplace opening. The right style for your home depends on your fireplace, how much room you have and what kind of look you're going for. In smaller areas flat panel screens are ideal, for larger areas a traditional folding fireplace enclosure might be the way to go. The more you compare different items the easier it will be to choose your favorite.

There are many different bronze fireplace screen manufacturers and sellers in stores and online from which you can select. Even though viewing an item on your computer isn't the same as seeing it in person, you can still get a pretty clear idea of whether or not it would look good in your home. The dimensions of your fireplace, the room in which it is located and your interior color scheme should all factor into your decision. In general, a bronze fireplace enclosure looks fantastic with other warm shades and Tuscan inspired interiors. Whether you choose gleaming bronze or dark heavily distressed bronze it will add a European sophistication to the room.
