Antique Brass Griffin & Peacock Folding Fire Guard – Edwardian Fireplace c.1900s

This exquisite antique fire guard dates to the early 1900s and features an iconic peacock fan design, paired with a bold central griffin figure at its base. Crafted from solid brass, the screen’s folding blades are pierced with sunburst and feather motifs that radiate elegance and function. The central griffin—a symbol of protection and strength—anchors the piece with mythological symbolism and stunning detail.

Designed in the Edwardian era, this fire screen blends Victorian opulence with emerging neoclassical aesthetics. The fan-style mechanism remains fully functional, allowing the screen to fold in and out with ease. When open, it makes a breathtaking decorative statement; when closed, it compacts neatly for storage. An ornate finial crowns the center spine, completing the silhouette with period authenticity.

Ideal for collectors, interior designers, or vintage décor enthusiasts, this fire guard is more than a fireplace accessory—it’s a historical artifact with presence and purpose.
