They are also a very elegant addition to the traditional splendor of some of the most gracious homes.

Of course today the sky is the limit when it comes to what shape and size your fireplace must be. I have seen some spectacular fireplaces around the world and can only marvel at the aesthetic value they bring to a room. Of course there are many traditional ones like those made of bricks and mortar or those surrounded by wood alone. Of course they offer use a glimpse into our history every time we make one, and sit back to enjoy the wonderful ambiance that fire can bring to a room.

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.

It is absolutely imperative to protect your home and your loved ones with a screen which has a dual purpose. Make sure when you shop that you get durable ones which are made of cast iron, glass, copper or brass. Durability is your number one priority and second should be aesthetics.

A word of advise, make sure you take the exact measurement of your fireplace as this could greatly help with sourcing the perfect fit for the open area. Also safety before beauty is the order of the day here. Make sure that your screen is 100 percent safe and won't melt or fall over.
