Mid-Century Sculptural Polished Brass & Glass Fireplace Screen

$4,475.00

This striking Mid-Century Sculptural Polished Brass & Glass Fireplace Screen originated in the United States, 20th Century. A rectilinear clear glass panel is held upright by a low profile polished brass plinth whose planar surfaces interlock with stepped block like brass feet. The glass seats into a precision channel within the brass uprights and reads nearly invisible against the flat plane, while thin ground edges catch and refract light to emphasize the panel's thickness. The brass base is executed in bold geometric volumes with gently arced cutouts at the uprights that cradle the glass and introduce a subtle sculptural silhouette. A bright mirror polish on the brass provides a lively contrast to the cool clarity of the glass, and the screen rests on a pair of squared outward angled feet that stabilize the composition. The design celebrates clean Mid-Century geometry and material contrast and presents the fireplace screen as an object of modernist presence as well as of practical function. Thoughtful proportions and an unadorned profile allow the screen to read as both a piece of architecture and a refined accessory within a variety of interior schemes, registering as presence without ostentation. The height of the glass can be customized to fit your needs. Excellent Vintage Condition.
