Beautiful Fireplace Screens

Hello Hadley Court blog readers! Last week, I shared with you inspiration on creating a festive mantelscape to welcome fall guests in your home this Thanksgiving – and this week, the fireplace topic continues with beautiful fireplace screens. Although some hearths may be left open, adding a fireplace screen to a is an elegant way to not on add a decorative form to your fireplace hearth, but a functional one as well.

Fireplace screens can enhance the architectural and interior style of your home – be it traditional, contemporary, or modern. Fireplace screens can also be an element bridging together old and new styles, for example: a Mission style fireplace screen can blend harmoniously with a modern or transitional interior, or a screen with organic lines can help to the edge away from hard-lines.

Below are a few examples of firescreens timeless design application…
