Fireplaces
range has been developed with the aim of combining traditional elegance with the necessity for modern practicality.
Any of our chimney pieces will make a welcome addition to your home and a focal point which your family and friends will enjoy for many years to come.
Throughout our history, we have had a love-hate relationship with our fireplaces. Love that cozy look and feel; hate the mess and work. Mantelpieces, on the other hand, are more likely to fall into the pure-love department.
Mantelpieces —the various assembled components that make up the ornamental front of a fireplace—could be seen as the fancy outer dress of the home heating apparatus—the wood, stone, or iron equivalents of mink coats and designer gowns. The mantelpiece (also called chimney piece) is often the single interior element that sets the tone of the house and announces its architectural provenance, its age, and the prosperity, tastes, or aspirations of its builders and owners. Mantelpieces command attention, and as any interior designer worth the price of ASID membership will tell you, a room with a mantelpiece is a room with a Focal Point.
builders of modern houses frequently made room in tiny postwar living rooms for a fireplace—whose presence was announced on the exterior by a looming chimney on the front wall of the house. And in all the decades since, the fireplace and its mantelpiece have continued to draw builders and buyers as irresistibly as—oh, might as well say it—as moths to a flame.
