{"product_id":"vintage-iron-mesh-folding-fire-screen","title":"Vintage Iron \u0026 Mesh Folding Fire Screen","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eA vintage iron fire screen from the dining room at Chanteduc, Patricia Wells’ home in Provence. Patricia explains, “There was already a fireplace in the dining room, but it was at floor level, so when you sat around the table, you couldn’t see the fire. I got the idea from an Italian design magazine to raise it, and I bought the screen locally. We had to redo the entire fireplace.” The effort was worth it, she recalls, as the hearth became the room’s focal point, admired by winter guests who lingered at the table with Patricia and Walter, warmed by its glow.\n\nThe three-panel screen is quietly handsome and practical. Crafted in blackened iron, it features a gently arched central crest and fine punched mesh that softens sparks while allowing the flame to shine through. Folding side wings offer flexibility across a generous raised hearth, the hinge work feels sturdy, and the finish carries an honest, time-earned patina from real use. In good vintage condition, it comes directly from Patricia Wells’ personal collection at Chanteduc, a reflection of her life of cooking, teaching, and welcoming friends to the table.\n\nPerfect for a dining room, kitchen hearth, or salon (sitting room), it brings safety and atmosphere in equal measure. Style it with a woven log basket and simple andirons, and let it set the stage for relaxed conversation long after dessert.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eLight wear.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 24\" high x 38¼\" wide x 0½\" thick  \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 61cm high x 97cm wide x 1cm thick \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54310828736850,"sku":"25267","price":1095.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC00674_3c24957e-dd76-443f-b2d5-dfb574e0d407.jpg?v=1787228772","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/vintage-iron-mesh-folding-fire-screen","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
