Customer Comments: Hello, I’m interested in a full unlacquered brass bench fireplace fender.

Our Comments: Here are some mockups showing how some of the benches will look in front of your fireplace. These are made from solid brass and can be unlacquered. I have included a matching fireplace screen made by the same company, so it can be unlacquered as well.

Custom Bench Fenders

These benches are hand crafted in the USA from solid brass. They are available with square or round rods with black, green or burngandy leather seats, or you can provide your own fabric (COM) and have the seats tufted or plain with or without brass nail heads. They can be made with rods the full lenght of the bench, with a drop center, or as two separate benches. The solid brass base is 3" wide. The benches are 8" wide and overhang the base 3" on the front and 2" in the back. The standard bench is 72" W x 22" H x 24" deep, but all 3 dimensions can be custom.

Glass Door Mesh Options

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.

Glass Options

Tempered vs Ceramic Glass: Tempered glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 450F without breaking from heat and should be at least 8" from the flames. Ceramic glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 1450F and be in direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass. Ceramic glass is $800-$2000 more than tempered glass depending on the manufacturer.

Not all doors are available with all of these glass options.
