Gas Insert - Any available without the faux log look?

[Who1]

I'm looking for a gas insert to replace a wood stove insert for my fireplace.

Are there any on the market that do anything other than try and look like a real fire?

I'd like something that looks unique.

You could always get one without the 'faux logs' and come up with something original, here's a couple of things I can think of

Use BBQ lava rocks or lava briquettes and make a charcoal or coal pile kinda look

Use steel wool and lava rocks and make a 'glowing embers' motif

make a cast iron cut-out of your least favorite politician and burn him in effigy

(sorry if my spelling is off, I've had a long day)

I have seen glass pieces that can be used. I do remember the flames coming from the glass looked kind of cool. I dont what applications it can fit.

Edit: A quick search on google of glass+fire brings up:

Wow... the glass is something unexpected yet it makes sense.

I thought it was cool too. I have no clue on how I came upon it the first time. Good thing I remembered how I found more of the companies huh

Well given the fact that there's nothing better on a rainy hump day than a good conspiracy theory, do tell...
