      Young women were delicate treasures and fainted at the slightest climatic change. This would be used to block the raident heat from a fireplace from scorching their pale faces. A fireplace face screen.

      You must be kidding TA. Is that for real ? Never heard of it.

      Not kidding. Keep in mind that being as fair skinned as possible was also a fad.

      The flat screen should be ajustable up and down the pole to accommodate different individuals. There were handheld versions as well.

      I can't vouch for it being original or a reproduction...
