Mantlepieces
have always reflected both the style and opulence of a home. For example: A
house with a marble mantlepiece in the living room, in the Victorian era was a
measure of wealth, whereas the more affordable simple timber mantle was for a
more modest home.
Ironically,
today's fireplace in a totally modern house or apartment in Sydney is very
minimulist indeed, whatever the value of the property. The emphasis is on
simple lines and the fireplace is not always the focal point of the room. It is
usually gas operated with a fan assist, and any mantlepiece fitted is
understated.
Whatever your taste and budget, Balgowlah
Restorations can design, supply and install the fireplace you desire.
