Abstract: A collapsible shield acts as a safety device for a stove when in a second, expanded, position by limiting access to (or interaction with) items on a stove top, thereby preventing possible burns or injuries around the stove. The collapsible shield may be stored and concealed in a first, collapsed position when not in use. The collapsible shield includes at least a first, proximal segment and a second, distal segment which is configured to move vertically and pivotally with respect to the first, proximal segment.
