fireplace screen

Spark-catching mesh barrier

A fireplace screen is a protective barrier placed in front of a fireplace opening to prevent sparks and embers from escaping into the room.

Screens range from simple mesh panels to decorative wrought-iron designs.

Some are freestanding while others attach to the fireplace surround: We need a new fireplace screen before winter.
