Fireplace Mantle Stone... The "A" List Of An All Star Cast!
Fireplace mantle stone . . . custom cast by the best cast stone artisans available today, has resulted in some remarkable designs . . . . .
Though
cast stone
has been used to craft fireplace mantles for
hundreds of years,
advances in mixtures, as well as in casting and finishing techniques, have made it virtually
impossible to distinguish between natural stone and high quality cast stone.
The versatility and "malleability" of cast stone has also made it easier -- and less costly --
to fabricate unique and unusual designs, such as the striking
gas-fired
hearth at right and below.
In addition to fireplace mantles, a wide array of other architectural elements are fabricated
from cast stone for both interior and exterior use. Curving balustrades, corner quoins, pilasters,
capitals, cornices and all manner of custom mouldings are just some of the quality cast stone
products available today.
Custom cast stone fireplace mantles and surrounds can be created in both
traditional . . . . . . . and
contemporary styles.
They can be simple . . . . . . . or elaborate . . .
The following photos depict a very small sampling of the many different styles of fireplace mantles
and surrounds that can be made from cast stone.
