1920s Fireplace Insert

An extraordinary fireplace insert with
a tiled quilted effect frieze. It has a
long low arch separated from the frieze
by alternating black iridescent one inch
tiles. The detail cutting of the tiles is
exceptionally well done. The creamy
brown glaze is deliberately separated
out like oil and water and the base of
the glaze has a burgundy colour which
is only seen at the tile edge. The inside
facing tiles of the fireplace opening are
unusually deep which means that the
fire is recessed further than normal.
The 24 inch wide fireplace opening
lends itself to a basket fire or baxi system
