An assembly is disclosed for enhancing the aesthetics of a gas fireplace. The assembly includes an elongated burner tube which is laterally disposed within the combustion chamber of the fireplace and which includes discharge ports which are inwardly oriented with respect to the combustion chamber. A tray adjoins the front side of the burner tube and may support lava rocks or the like for hiding the burner tube from view. A gap is defined between the floor of the combustion chamber and the bottom surface of the tray so that secondary air can travel from the front end of the combustion chamber towards the burner tube. A support adjoins the rear side of the burner tube and includes an inclined surface facing the burner tube. An emberizing material such as mineral wool is supported by the inclined surfaces. Ignition of the burner tube causes flames to be directed rearwardly and to impinge upon the emberizing material, causing it to glow. The orientation of the emberizing material with respect to the combustion chamber provides a large glowing surface. The burner tube and support are both adapted to be secured to a grate which is used for supporting an artificial log set.
