This screen was installed with the ampersand handle in time for the Ice Wine celebration at Lightfoot & Wolfville Winery The rough opening of the fireplace was approximately 57″ x 54″. The mason who built that beautiful fieldstone chimney left some live edges that required a bit of fiddle to get the frame properly anchored.

Two doors with design elements from the client’s label – Mayflower, Thistle, Fleur de Lis, and a Grape leaf at the corners are attached by (ahem) butterfly hinges. Although the fireplace is in a roofed pavilion, it is outside overlooking the Minas Basin. Stainless steel mesh was the preferred choice. I was able to source it from a Canadian company – Ferrier Wire Goods. They generously answered my questions and filled my little order promptly.
