These are fabulous beyond belief — I am blown away that they still make these great, cone fireplaces! Okay, we’re now into 60s style…but I think one of these Malm Fireplaces will look great on the screen porch we’re planning out back. Alternatively: In the attic, when we get around to finishing off the space as an all purpose open space for yoga, reading, my daughter’s sleepovers and a spare guest room.
You can find cheaper versions of these, originals, on eBay. A company called “Preway” also made them, including in the famous orange. But, I think that buying this classic design but new is a great idea – including going with the gas logs!

Last time I was in “Suite Lorain” in Cleveland, they had two of these (like in the first picture). One was red, and one was blue, and I sure don’t remember the price because i wasn’t really looking to buy…just no way to use one of these in my place. I really think you all need to come to NE Ohio for a field trip!!!
Hi
I have a free standing fireplace that was origionally orange but it had some chips in it so we painted it with fire paint (black)
Now the screen which we have repeared at least a dozen times over the last 16 years is really on its last leg. Can anyone help? This is believed to be the origional screen but I’m really not sure. I’m looking to buy a new one but I would also be interested in knowing if this fire lace is still being made. Can anyone help me?

Mariellen,
I have a Malm myself and my question is posted here (how to paint my Malm). I too will need a new screen. I went to local fireplace/outdoor furniture businesses and found one that will have it! Look around town. If not you can check out Fireplace and Verandah Orlando, FL.

Mariellen,
What exactly did you use to paint your fireplace? I want to paint mine black!
