An exceptional vintage brass firescreen featuring a dramatic fan-shaped pierced design with richly detailed figural and animal motifs. The central cast figure is framed by radiating brass panels with intricate cutwork, creating a striking sculptural silhouette that feels both theatrical and architectural.
The heavy cast base features ornate detailing and stylised animal faces, while the pierced brass panels allow light to pass through, casting beautiful shadows when positioned in front of a fireplace or used as a standalone decorative feature.
This piece shows strong Art Deco and Art Nouveau influences, with classical references and a real sense of craftsmanship and presence. It works equally well as a functional firescreen or as a striking sculptural statement in an eclectic or period interior.
