Questions About Oversized Fireplace Mantel
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 29, 2024
    Fireplaces have mantels to prevent smoke from entering the room. Initially, mantels functioned as hoods and were installed to protect an interior space and nearby objects from the extreme heat generated by a fireplace.

    Today, fireplaces and mantels can be seen as a focal point in your decor. Fireplaces were once essential fixtures in a home. 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.

    Find antique and vintage fireplaces and mantels on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    A fireplace mantel surround is an object that extends from the fireplace's exterior wall into the room and frames the opening. It consists of the sides and a mantel, although it may or may not contain the hearth, which is the base of the fireplace. Fireplace surrounds assist in making a fireplace more of a centerpiece and focal point for a home, as well as offering a shelf space above the fireplace for personal objects to be displayed. Find a variety of antique and vintage fireplace mantel surrounds on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 29, 2024
    A mantel shelf is typically mounted 12 inches above the inner section of a fireplace, which is called the firebox.

    Today, fireplaces and mantels can be seen as a focal point in your decor. 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.
