Our Comments: Here are some variations of the design that you presented. The design can be hand crafted by artisans from solid brass where each piece of the design is bent, silver soldered and brazed to create a visually seamless pattern that is then chrome plated. Chrome plated solid brass produces a deep lustre that is highly polished and durable, lasting a lifetime. Highly refined and very expensive. A more affordable option would be to make the door from chrome plated laser cut steel, which will not have the same lustre or durability, but is less expensive.

If you are planning on burning anything in your fireplace, you need to have mesh behind the glass so you can burn a fire with the doors open. You can chooe between gate mesh backup doors and sliding mesh curtains. Functionally, gate mesh performs the best as the wire has smaller holes that sparks cannot get through. Aesthetically, mesh curtains may be preferred because they do not have a vertical center frame that obstructs the view of the fire. When you are not using the fire or you want a complete unobstructed view, they do not stick out like gate mesh doors when they are opened.
We are showing these options on a flat steel bifold door with a satin brass overlay and gray glass.
