A 20-inch wide cast iron fireback with a nautical anchor and wheel design, finished in matte black, for wood-burning and gas log fireplaces.
This Minuteman International fireback combines decorative appeal with functional heat efficiency. The sculpted ship's anchor and wheel add a coastal touch to any hearth, while the solid cast iron construction absorbs heat from the fire and radiates it back into the room, improving fireplace efficiency. It also protects firebrick from damage, extending the life of your firebox. Designed to rest on the hearth floor, it can be used with optional supports for added height.
Best for
- Wood-burning and gas log fireplaces in living rooms, family rooms, and dens
- Homes with aging fireplaces where firebrick protection is needed
- Coastal or nautical-themed decor settings
- Fireplaces where additional heat radiation is desired to improve heating efficiency
Not ideal for
- Fireplaces with very shallow hearths where the 2-inch depth may not fit flush
- Outdoor fireplaces or fire pits - designed for indoor use only
- Spaces where a purely decorative screen is preferred over a functional heat reflector
Style and finish
The fireback features a matte black cast iron finish with a detailed nautical motif of an anchor and ship's wheel. The design is traditional and rustic, fitting well with coastal, cottage, or classic decor styles. The matte black finish is understated and blends with most fireplace surrounds.
