How Much is a Fireplace Coal Grate?
Finding the Right fireplaces-mantels for You
While we likely wouldn’t mourn the invention of home heating and air-conditioning, these innovations did tragically reduce the widespread need for fireplaces and mantels in our living rooms.
Once an essential fixture in all homes, the fireplace, which, along with the chimney, is as old as the Middle Ages, was actually rendered redundant with the advent of the cast-iron heating stove during the 18th century. Victorian-era heating stoves were popular in the common areas of a living space for their capacity to heat as well as for their lack of smoke compared to fireplaces. However, improvements in craftsmanship as well as the Industrial Revolution meant that fireplaces were evolving in form and functionality.
Even as HVAC systems would eventually see to it that fireplaces weren’t a necessity, no mechanically engineered thermal heating and ventilation technology can replicate the feeling of warmth and camaraderie that a flickering fire guarantees. We just love a good fireplace.
“With antique fireplaces, you get heart, soul, character and architecture,” says Tony Ingrao, a Manhattan-based interior designer who purchased an important 16th-century French limestone fireplace for a client’s Greenwich Village townhouse.
Vintage fireplaces and mantels have earned their coveted position as desirable focal points in any room over the course of a staggering evolution in design that has yielded everything from intricately carved works of limestone to sleek works of wood paneling and rolled steel.
As log after log turns into ash, these iconic designs prove their timelessness and value, monetarily and as prized decorative monuments. Whether you seek to simply warm a space or completely transform it, an eye-catching new mantel for your blazing hearth — be it an elegant neoclassical design, a marvelous work of marble in the Louis XV style or an unconventional contemporary variation — is the perfect solution.
Find a collection of antique and vintage fireplaces and mantels on 1stDibs today.
- How do I buy a fireplace grate?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Before buying a fireplace grate, take the time to measure your fireplace to determine which size is best for your home.

- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021The best type of fireplace grate is usually cast iron or heavy steel bar grates since they last much longer. But you will also find them in brass or wrought iron. Based on your preference and décor style, you will find a wide variety of fireplace grates on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021The best material for a fireplace grate where only wood is being burnt is steel. Where either wood or coal is being burnt, cast iron is the best material. On 1stDibs, shop vintage and antique fireplace grates in both – steel and cast iron.
