Vintage and Antique Fire Screens

There is nothing as comforting as the warmth of a roaring fire on a cold night. 

The enchantment mixes with reality as the room warms bringing to life the subtle colors and soft nuances of the room. 

The mood is enhanced by the addition of fine art, and antiques.  To set the room off an antique fire screen can provide a subtle contrast, or becomes the riveting focal point of the room.

One of the most beautiful of the new vintage reproduction designs is the antique iris firescreen.

Fireplace Accents

Accented by a strategically placed bellows and an andiron, the fireplace takes on a surreal aura of old and new, fantasy and reality, dream and vision.  

The antique iris firescreen is a well-done replica of a stained glass window.  The wrought iron separates sections of iridescent glass in shades of ivory and muted blues blends seamlessly with most of today's home decorating styles.

Screen Designs - Antique
When you hear "Antique fireplace screens" don't you see images of parlors, tapestries, Victorian rooms and a whole lot of elegance? This screen design is generally found in either brass or gold. They are characterized by some type of scroll, swirl or flower and always a rounded elegant design. They are usually found in rooms with a more formal decor.  Match your antique fireplace screen with coordinating fireplace tools and a log rack and you are guaranteed to add visual impact to any room.

The variety of antique fire screen designs and their sizes make it easy to find the perfect one for your home.  Many people choose inexpensive fireplace screens to cover space heaters as well as fireplaces.

This type of accenting works very will in a loft or an apartment with baseboard heaters or water heaters.  And with a cast iron fireplace.

Iris Firescreen

The home decorator does not always need a screen or guard to become a vital element in the room.  There are some rooms where the elegant designs in an antique iris firescreen would appear out of place, and even pretentious. 

There are rooms where the screen is only meant to cover the bare spot, or even stop a draft.  This can be the case in older homes, where the brick is not as solid as it is in today's home. 

The inexpensive fireplace screen can seal a draft.  At holidays or when company arrives, a quilt or throw can be draped over the screen to hide the functionality, and enhance the inherent beauty.

The intrinsic value of the new styles in fireplace decorative accents like the antique fire screen is one which transcends home design, becoming an individual statement of style and individuality. 

Antique fire screen designs are unique and distinctive enough to be taken as a fashion statement.  Every home should reflect the homeowner's lifestyle, no matter where the eye travels.

  It's so easy to breath new life into a room by adding a beautiful fireplace screen,
