Showcasing our latest showroom antique fireplaces
February 4th at 12:00am
Here at Grate Expectations, we stock a broad range of stunning antique fireplaces alongside our best-in-class modern fireplaces.
That's because our primary goal is to always ensure our customers end up with the best fireplace for their particular property. And if you have a period property — Edwardian, Victorian, Georgian (or older!) — chances are an antique fireplace will be the wisest choice, as it will fit in seamlessly.
However, antique fireplaces aren’t only for those with period homes. Adding an antique fireplace into a modern property is a great way to inject plenty of personality; and you can always opt for a modern burner, if you're after a classical look with eco-friendly performance.
To give you an idea what kind of antique fireplaces we have in stock, we’ve highlighted a small selection of our recent latest and greatest below — feel free to take a look.
