A firescreen is a decorative movable panel placed in front of a fireplace grate during the summer months when fires are not in use, or used to protect occupants from the intense heat of an active fire.

They were typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, often featuring inset panels of needlework, tapestry, or painted glass.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period construction techniques such as hand-cut joinery, aged patina on the wood, and traditional hand-stitched needlework or tapestry panels rather than machine-printed textiles.

A firescreen can be utilized as a decorative focal point in front of a disused fireplace, positioned in an empty corner to add architectural interest, or used as a room divider.

Maintain the piece by dusting the wooden frame regularly with a dry cloth and applying high-quality beeswax periodically to nourish the mahogany. Keep textile panels protected from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
