Brand: Pennsylvania Firebacks

Located in: Fireplaces, Tools and Fireplace Essentials, Firebacks

In earlier times, the well appointed fireplace was never considered complete unless it included a cast iron fireback. Today, the fireback's usefulness and charm have been rediscovered and are again at the center of the hearth and home.

This fireback, like the 18" Field of Stars can be used alone or in combination with other units to fit a variety of fireplace sizes.

Product Features

Efficiency - Positioned against the back wall of a fireplace, a fireback protects the masonry of the back wall and radiates the heat of the fire forward. By reflecting light and heat from the fire out into the room, a fireback is a noticeable improvement to the hearth. This warmth is gained whether a fireback is used with wood fires or gas logs.
Protection - A cast iron fireback is still the best way to protect a hearth's back wall from decay. Despite advances in technology, the harsh rays of the fire render even modern refractory material vulnerable to damage and the likelihood of expensive repairs. A fireback will effectively prevent any further damage to the back wall.
Aesthetics - As a sculptural accent in what is usually the natural focal point of a home, a fireback lends visual warmth and interest to a hearth whether it's with a roaring fire or by soft candlelight.
Cast Iron, Made by hand in the USA

Comments about Pennsylvania Firebacks Field of Leaves Fireback - SF15:

We've got it in our smaller fireplace (22" wide back wall), with a standard grate in front. It does radiate noticeably more heat into the room than the fire alone, and keeps the frame wall behind the fireplace completely cool (it was quite warm before, though the chimney sweep said that was okay). I wanted to get feet for it, but they couldn't tell me what the thickness of the fireback was, so I couldn't order the feet I wanted until after the fireback arrived. We used it without feet, leaned against the back wall as recommended, a couple weeks but I was worried it would fall forward if a log got rolled against it. It's just an inch thick and so will fit most of the decorative feet out there in addition to the ugly ones recommended by the manufacturer.
