Decorative Glass Fireplace Screens

November 24th, 2009 by lgannett – Comments (0)

Etched glass fireplace screens are another very popular architectural “accessory” glass item created by Sans Soucie Art Glass.  Any shape, style or configuration is possible and what a stunning effect the etched and carved glass areas take on, when back lit by the natural light from the fire.

The first photo I’m featuring in this blog, our “Swan Song” design fireplace screen, is what I believe to be one of the most beautiful custom “art pieces” featured on a glass firescreen on our web site.  A beautiful picturesque scene of two Swans in a Lake, the scene is bordered by chiseled irregular edges all around, including the base piece.  This is a single panel, free standing glass fireplace screen, which takes up very little space, but you do have to have enough room to slide the screen away from the opening when necessary.

Beautiful custom edges can be irregularly carved all around, following the edge of the custom design, as seen, for example on the “Hibiscus & Ribbons” glass fireplace screen.  The edges have been chiseled to follow the ribbons and flowers that are featured around the border.

Another favorite, is the “Iris” Fireplace screen.  The photo is quite old and doesn’t really show enough detail to allow you to appreciate the deep carved textures in the glass.  This is a beautiful design, and the 3 panel, clipped corner design panel

configuration is a very popular choice for an all glass firescreen.
