Antique Fireplaces

Cast and Pine Direct don’t supply Antique Fireplaces but what we do supply is a fireplace range that have been designed with the original period fireplace in mind. An antique is an item that is 50 years old and older but when you think of original antique fireplaces most people associate this with an item from the Georgian or Victorian era. These fireplaces were designed to be a main heat source for the room but also to be decorative and a focal point for the room, the fireplace started life as a very simple grate to burn the fuel in which the heat then rose up the chimney.

Cast iron fireplaces date from the early 1700s and casting iron was perfected by Abraham Darby and since then the Cast Iron Fireplace was formed we sell the Gallery range of fireplaces from these fabulous eras via our website and these range from The Fitzwilliam ornate Victorian Reproduction fireplace to the Northmoor Tiled Fireplace both are classics from this period in time and add a true touch of period style to any property.

Original fireplaces are very hard to get hold of as most were destroyed in the 1960s and 1970s by DIY people renovating there houses they were removed as they were no longer fashionable and more efficient gas fires installed that’s why today there is such large range of reproduction fireplaces to create the look from the past.
We believe its not a matter of adding a fireplace that’s an exact date to your property we advise customers to go with what they like whether it be a simple arched fireplace to the most ornate Chimney Piece with large Marble surround it all comes down to a matter of taste and if you choose tiled fireplaces we have such a large range of Tubelined Tiles to match any colour décor you really wont be stuck for choice. Coupled with the large range of Stone and Timber Surrounds we offer there are 1000s of Combinations available whether for Gas or Solid fuel use we do believe we offer the best range of fireplaces available on the Market
