Degerkas tagged her flickr photos with apartmenttherapychicago, and we're so glad she did. We love her new orange Malm fireplace! She says: "It only took me 7 months of craigslisting, a huge favor from my parents in Chicago, and a long visit at Christmas to get the bright orange fireplace! " Click below for more photos.

you know, that has got to be silliest thing ever. why put a faux fire place in your apt just to put candles in it? why not just get the dvd of the fireplace, at least that has some kitch value...

I love it! But I do think it looks better without the candles =)

I don't think it's silly if she's planning on using it in a future home.
If a great bargain comes along you have to take it!
I agree with anna, I like it better without the candles.

i disagree with kung, the candles are a clever idea if you can't utilize it yet...
and it looks great with the high ceiling!

Not sure how to hide the cord but what about one of those electric fireplace logs? Just a thought
Love the fireplace BTW.

We have this exact fireplace (not installed yet). We found it on eBay for $100! Pretty psyched. We're going to put it in our basement but it's going to cost us $2,000 to install and we just bought our house so right now the money is earmarked for other things. But what the hell -- maybe we'll put it down there as a "candleplace" to get us inspired to get the thing installed!!!

I love this, everytime I see it in a magazine. Not quite sure it works in that particular home though. It looks out of place.

Why not? I don't know why I haven't thought of something like this? A piece like that is a great focal point. I might make a little pile of birch branches or something with some candles as well.
On second thought though, I shouldn't tempt myself. Knowing me, I would install some sort of makeshift exhaust and start burning wood. Then I'd be in real trouble...

My mom has the exact same fireplace. She snatched it at a tag sale for $15.00! Since she lives in an apartment she can't install it. So she found these fake logs (another tag sale find) that has little pieces of metal that crackles and makes the light flicker. It's the first thing everybody notices when they come over. You wouldn't believe the people who get fooled by it ,too.

Does anyone know who makes (made) this fireplace? I need some chimney pipe for mine. Any and all help appreciated...
