Warm your cockles...
Luckily here in deepest darkest somerset, the predicted snowfall seems to have passed us by. However, it's still a bit nippy (bloody freezing) so maybe it's time to think about sprucing up your fireplace. As usual, we have a large selection of reclaimed original fireplaces, fire surrounds and fire grates in stock. Cast iron, wooden, hand carved stone, marble and slate so we're pretty sure we'll have something to suit every taste and budget.
The Victorian's were very keen on the larger decorative cast iron fireplaces
for their main sitting room. The dramatic black cast iron fireplace was softened with the fashion for ceramic tiles, often handpainted depicting country scenes or more simplistic in design e.g flowers in bright colours. If the Victorian look is your bag, then we have plenty of options available and we can deliver all over the country.
If your space is on the small side, then a 'bedroom' fireplace could be an option. Before the joys of central heating, every room would have had a fireplace, including the bedrooms. These examples are often simpler in design and look more at home in a contemporary space. However, they are small and can only give out a limited amount of heat.
If an open fire is not your thing, then a wood burner is the way to go. They give off such a lovely heat and burn less fuel than an open fire meaning fewer trips to the log pile. We have both reclaimed and new in stock but they are not available to purchase online so please pop in to have a look.
We have a vast selection of fire surrounds in stock - pine, painted, marble etc. We also have a beautiful range of hand carved stone surrounds. These are a lovely buff coloured sandstone and look fantastic in both period an
d and modern properties. The prices are also highly competitive. Our selection of reclaimed and new fire grates go perfectly with this look. To finish the look we have a vast selection of both reclaimed and new fireside accessories. Copper skuttles, cast iron companion sets and brass fenders are all available to purchase in store.
So Wells Reclamation can definitely help you warm your cockles and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Wrap up warm!
