1950s Vintage all tiled fireplace

We make Fireplaces from 1920s Art Deco fireplaces and classic Edwardian fireplace and mantel designs.

This is highly complex all tiled fireplace made by H&E Smiths of Stoke on Trent in the early 1950s.

It is made with the Van Delft range of tiles with a purple heather tint and several moulded blocks in a beige/brown mottle.

The fireplace is unusually deep (8 inches) and the sides and top are decorated with a band of 2 inch square Van Delft tiles in the heather tint.

Starting from small block feet the whole back panel is framed with the kerb tiles split lengthways and a raised rib inserted at the join.

The header section has angled tile panels to either side and a central bowed panel made from edge glazed finger tiles only 0.375 inches wide.

The shelf separating the header from the fire opening section is supported on a row of right angled fingers similar to the narrow, horizontally laid fingers between the chamfered opening blocks.

The hearth has a raised kerb made from these blocks with square bosses at the corners.

Delivery

Tiled fireplaces and hearths are bulky items that require specialist handling and transport.

We can arrange fully insured delivery by a specialist company who will bring the fireplace into your property.

The price for this service depends on the weight of the items and your distance from us.

Other heavy but more robust items may be sent out via standard pallet freight up to a maximum size of

1200mm x 1000mm x 1800mm high and a maximum weight of 1200kg.

Again price depends on size, weight and distance from our factory.

Palleted goods are only delivered to the nearest suitable roadside drop off point to your house and you will need to transfer the goods from there into your premises yourself.

For smaller and lighter items (20kg or less) we use a courier service that offers a next day delivery (once the goods have been packed). Multiple parcels to the same address are also possible with the rate being less for each additional package.

We can also arrange packaging and shipping for export orders from loose tiles through to complete fireplaces.
