FIREPLACE  OR   MANTEL ?

     EACH OF MY ONE-INCH SCALE PERIOD STYLES IS AVAILABLE AS EITHER A ONE PIECE FIREPLACE FOR INSTALLING IN EXISTING ROOMS, OR AS A TWO PIECE MANTEL FOR CUSTOM OR CORNER INSTALLATION OR FOR USE WITH A CHIMNEYBREAST. BOTH ARE IDENTICAL IN WIDTH, HEIGHT AND CHOICE OF FINISHES, AND EACH COMES WITH HEARTH AND GLOWING EMBERS.

GREEK REVIVAL MANTEL

     THE MAIN DIFFERENCE IN THE TWO STYLES IS THAT THE ONE PIECE FIREPLACE IS THICKER THAN THE MANTEL SO THAT IT CAN ENCLOSE THE BRICK FIREBOX; THIS STYLE MAY BE USED IN AN EXISTING SETTING.
      THE TWO PIECE MANTEL IS THINNER AND MORE REALISTIC IN APPEARANCE THAN THE FIREPLACE, BUT ITS FIREBOX MUST BE RECESSED,  EITHER INTO THE EXISTING WALL OR A CHIMNEYBREAST.
