Dewdrop Shield
Burning a wood fire on top of a fire-sensitive surface is no longer a problem, thanks to the Glowbus® Dewdrop Shield. This unique, heat-resistant carpet ensures that the temperature underneath your Dewdrop is drastically reduced, so that you can place it without any worry on top of more vulnerable surfaces such as certain types of natural stone, polished concrete, composite, ... The Dewdrop Shield is made locally by hand in a highly durable black woven fabric.
