The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A peacock tail fire screen is a folding hearth accessory featuring reticulated, fan-like brass blades that pivot open from a central cast base to conceal an unlit fireplace opening.

These screens are constructed primarily from cast and stamped brass or bronze, featuring perforated sheet metal blades hinged at a central base mechanism with a cast carrying handle.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-finished cast bronze or brass bases, heavy mechanical pivot joints, cast scrollwork, and detailed pierced patterns across the individual fan leaves.

Position the fully expanded fan on a hearth tile or inside an unused fireplace alcove to add architectural texture, warm metal tones, and geometric detail to living spaces.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and clean crevices using a soft bristle brush, taking care to avoid abrasive polishes if preserving original aged patina or lacquer finishes.
