The world’s getting ready for winter. And with families doing their bit to keep warm, it is about time for cleaning up those old fireplaces. Or buying new ones depending on the budget.For those who tire of cumbersome and messy fireplaces and soot, there is some news.

Ever thought your fireplace would hang on the wall instead of getting floor-bound under the chimney?

It is possible, and without the mess of soot or those long hours of cleaning. It does not have to be built into your wall either, or have a chimney fit to get the smoke out. Vauni has come up with a unique spherical fireplace that mounts on the wall like a flat-screen TV. Vauni’s earlier masterpiece was the Globe fireplace. This one is an enhancement. Called Cupola, the wall-mountable piece comes with an advanced and adjustable bio-ethanol burner, allowing vent-less, hassle-free flames.

It looks arty, it looks elegant. It looks minimalist and can also double up as a décor piece in your living room. The fireplace is made of light-weight aluminium and comes in black, or a white matte finish. Thanks to its pioneering features, it costs $2,735.
