A "Shag" style fireplace? - Beyond Tiki

I think the seller is being overly optimistic with their reserve, don't you think? At 250 you should have hit reserve by now! Ah well. As for the 'ACORN" term, I noticed it seems to be a Canadian-only word 'cause when I looked it up in google, all the sites that referred to these funky fireplaces as acorns were Canadian. So I think in the US it is just 'Free Standing Contemporary Fireplace' and there is no specific name that I can see. Makes it harder to find.
