Firescreens based on famous fires...

London and Rome...

They appear to be fresh designs and not yet for sale.

I think you are looking for the fireplace section.That just would'ent work for a wood stove. ;-)
 
They are awesome though.
 
We don't have a "fireplace section". And who in the world would want to sit and gaze at an image of historically catastrophic destruction, death, loss and pain? Not my personal idea of awesome. Might as well have photos of bodies burned beyond recognition on the walls next to the fireplace. Read some history. Just my honest reaction to the concept. Rick
 
I don't think its accurate to call them firescreens, as they don't look like they would do what FP screens are s'posed to do ... stop sparks.

Maybe FP art sculptures ?

Perhaps the next one should feature Mrs. O'Leary's cow ?

I'm not sure how I would mount these to my EKO....but it might be worth a shot. Cool! Wish I had a fireplace...

I think the cow is a decent idea, and actually I think they will work as screens, it is hard to see, but it definitely looks like there is a black metal screen that is acting as a foundation for the metal cutouts that make up the "art" I think I've seen similar sorts of things before although usually with more "tasteful" subjects for the cutouts. It even appears that there is an arched top to the thing.
