I'm a person who doesn't like picking up things to dust, so I'd just stick with the sign.

I agree that less on the mantel is best, more focus on the sign. I am also not a big fan of prefab fireplaces with louvers. Even though it is a blatant distraction, most people overlook this and don't realize it can be hidden like this:

Shown Above: 1P30M Labyrinth Fireplace Screen with MAN-9 Gallery Andirons in Statuary Bronze.

Here's a picture of the Labyrinth screen in Polished Nickel. This entire piece is made from solid brass and then finished in many different options. The Labyrinth pattern hides what is behind it very well.

Shown Above: Custom Fireplace Screen with double woven mesh in Dark Bronze. If you paint the existing glass door frames black they will disappear behind the double woven mesh.
