Description
Corinthian Style Fireplace Surround- Hardwood Reclaimed
This Corinthian style hardwood fireplace surround showcases the elegance and craftsmanship inspired by ancient Greek design. Made of dense hardwood, probably mahogany, it features detailed carvings of ferns and scrolls atop fluted columns. The design draws directly from the classical architecture of the Corinthian city state, where intricate detailing symbolised sophistication and refinement. Furthermore, over centuries, this style has become a favourite for interiors seeking a classical, structured aesthetic.
This Corinthian style hardwood fireplace surround combines strength and beauty. Indeed, its solid construction resists warping, making it ideal for regular use around an open fire or wood burning stove. In addition, the hardwood’s natural density ensures stability, while its rich grain and deep tone add depth to any living space. The wide mantel provides a sturdy surface, capable of supporting heavy mirrors or decorative ornaments with ease.
Measuring 163cm wide, 23cm deep and 115cm tall, this piece commands attention without overpowering a room. Moreover, the subtle header and well-proportioned plinths balance the intricate carvings, creating a harmonious composition.

However, these details add authenticity and invite restoration. With a gentle clean and light polish, its natural colour and historical influence will emerge beautifully.
