About the Item

A large and dignified early eighteenth-century Queen Anne or George I stone frame fireplace surround, the shallow shelf above shallow arched frieze and jambs with carved fielded panels, centred by tapered and fluted keystone, the aperture framed with bead moulding. English, c.1710. This fireplace typifies the simple flat-slab surrounds that were common in England in the eighteenth century around the time George I ascended the throne. Throughout the 1720s and 30s, Georgian Palladianism became the dominant architectural style and fireplace surrounds became increasingly elaborate with more decoration, relief and depth, in stark contrast to the restrained designs of the preceding decades. For similar examples see Neil Burton & Lucy Potten, Georgian Chimneypieces (The Georgian Group, 2000), p.18 All our fireplaces are prepared and restored in our workshops to the very best standards and are ready for installation and use. We are also able to offer a full supply and fit service for our fireplaces within Great Britain and are happy to discuss options for hearths and interior firebox finishes.
