Animal Guards - Black Galvanized - 3/4
Prevent animal entry with black galvanized animal guards. Durable 3/4-inch mesh design to protect your chimney from debris and pests.

1/4" Solex Fire Glass introduces a gentle, muted green tone to your fire feature—offering a natural, calming alternative to more vibrant fire glass options. Inspired by sea glass and softened sage hues, Solex brings subtle sophistication and a nature-inspired feel to both indoor fireplaces and outdoor fire pits.
Its soft color works beautifully in designs focused on tranquility, balance, and connection to the outdoors—especially in spa settings, zen patios, or earth-toned living spaces.
Sized at 1/4", Solex fire glass provides a refined, uniform flame bed that reflects light softly without overpowering the fire’s movement. The smaller size ensures close coverage for clean lines, while its translucent quality allows flame and ambient lighting to shine through.
The result is a clean, consistent presentation with just the right amount of color and shine.
As with all premium fire glass, Solex is heat-tempered for long-term performance in high-temperature environments. It won’t melt, crack, or discolor over time and produces no smoke, soot, or ash—making it ideal for modern gas fireplaces and outdoor fire pits.
It’s a lasting upgrade that provides effortless beauty in any setting.
Solex Fire Glass blends well with stone, wood, concrete, and soft neutral finishes, making it ideal for rustic, transitional, or organic modern design schemes. Its light sage tone adds color without bold contrast, supporting a balanced, natural aesthetic.
It brings a quiet charm that works whether the fire is lit or resting.
1/4" Solex Fire Glass offers an earthy, understated alternative to brighter, bolder media—perfect for creating a sense of calm and continuity in your fireplace design. It’s clean-burning, versatile, and quietly stylish, adding depth and polish to both modern and classic fire features.
For homeowners and designers who favor subtlety and serenity over flash and flame dominance, Solex is a naturally beautiful choice.
