AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A stylish vintage three-panel fireplace screen in brass and fine metal mesh, dating from approximately the mid-20th century.

This elegant folding fire screen features a beautifully shaped brass frame with softly rounded and arched upper sections. The three panels are fitted with fine black metal mesh, providing both a decorative appearance and practical protection in front of a fireplace.

The screen has a charming aged character, with a warm antique brass finish and natural patina developed over time. The brass has not been heavily polished, preserving its original vintage appearance. The fine metal mesh is complete and intact throughout. The frame and mesh are both undamaged!

The construction is particularly attractive, with traditional metal hinges connecting the panels and a small decorative finial on the upper edge of the central section. The screen can be folded for convenient storage or opened to create a wide protective barrier in front of a fireplace.

The design and materials are characteristic of European fireplace accessories from the mid-20th century, approximately the 1950s–1970s. The exact country of manufacture and maker are unknown, as there are no visible maker’s marks. The provenance is therefore described as European, probably mid-20th century.

A beautiful decorative and functional piece for a traditional, vintage, rustic or eclectic interior. It would also make an excellent addition to a collection of antique and vintage fireplace accessories.

Condition

Good vintage condition with signs of age and use consistent with its period. The brass frame shows natural patina and some surface wear, adding to its authentic character. The metal mesh is fully intact and undamaged. The hinges are present and functional. Please study the photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.
