What to replace this old electric heater with

[SomeRandomer]

So I have an old 90s heater that I want to replace but am struggling to come up with a nice alternative. The area behind the heater is pretty rough and un-plastered, so I'd prefer to get something to cover that up rather than having to plaster it, as I don't have the time or skills to do it.

It doesn't have to be another heater, just something decorative or a nice centrepiece for the room, or a relaxing night light etc.. open to any and all ideas

Tia.

Fill it, paint it, put a potted plant in it.

A candlebra (edit- should read candelabra - but a candlebra would certainly be a talking point ) that holds 4, 5 or 6 pillar candles at different heights would be ideal.

Ireland used to have several blacksmiths that did things like this - but most are gone.

They would have made very sturdy pieces that would have suited perfectly - may still be a couple around and you may also be able to source from other places

And you could even make it yourself under his watchful eyes!

Like it or not, you are almost certainly going to have to plaster it/paint it. It looks too big for filler to be used.

You could just put a firescreen in front of it
