Limestone beauty
We specialise in products made from Limestone. We like to use Limestone because it is such a beautiful stone. Our main products are stone fireplaces, but we also make architectural items and our masons can make anything in stone. The limestone we use for our fireplaces comes from France. We use a particulary beautiful stone, that has a lovely texture and fine figuring that gives it a very unique beauty. As with most sedimentary Limestones, there can often be remnants of sea shells or other sea creatures in the stone. Sometimes there will even be a whole sea shell still there embedded in the stone. Of course we can’t tell if there’s anything in there until we cut the stone, and so your stone fireplace is a ‘mystery’ until it is actually cut. The same thing applies though to any thing we make in stone, whether it’s a stone staircase, stone mullions, or stone gate pillars.
Limestone is not the only stone we can use for stone fireplaces though, and we can use any stone if you have one you particularly like. There are 1000’s of different stones, and thousand of different limestones. We have chosen stones for our standard ranges that have great beauty and colour.
If you have seen a stone that you like: In an old building perhaps, or some other old stone construction, then send us a photo or a sample and we’ll tell you if we can get something similar, or even the same.
