Victorian Fireplaces

Victorian Fireplaces That Bring Back the Best of British Design

Real weight. Real style. Real heat.

If your home has tall ceilings, timber floors and old-fashioned charm, you already know a modern fireplace just won’t cut it. You need shape. You need detail. You need something built for homes that were made with pride.

Victorian fireplaces do all of that—and more.

From tiled inserts to cast iron frames, these fireplaces aren’t just fittings. They’re features.

Why a Victorian Fireplace Still Make Sense

They Look Right in the Room
Some fireplaces fade into the wall. Not these.

Whether you go for full cast iron or a marble surround with tiled panels, Victorian style fireplaces bring the centre of the room back to life.

And the detailing? Sharp lines. Arched openings. Floral tiles. No gimmicks—just design that’s stood the test of time.

Built for Heat
These fireplaces weren’t made to be looked at. They were made to warm homes in the middle of a British winter.

Victorian cast iron fireplaces hold heat long after the fire dies down. Pair one with a modern solid fuel fire, gas insert or electric flame effect and it works just as well today.

Flexible and Easy to Match
Whether you’re restoring a period property or just adding character to a newer build, reproduction Victorian fireplaces give you all the style without the hassle of tracking down an original.

Cast iron. Timber. Marble. You can mix and match with tiled inserts, fire baskets and hearths.

And no—you don’t need to live in a listed building to make it work.

Victorian Tiled Fireplaces

Want colour? Start here.

Victorian tiled fireplaces were made to show off. Decorative tiles on either side of the fire opening give contrast, texture and a touch of history.

Choose from traditional patterns, floral designs, or plain glazed tiles for a cleaner look.

Perfect for lounges, dining rooms and bedrooms that need a little lift.
