When homeowners or owners of commercial properties such as pubs or hotels are looking to recreate that period feel, most likely inspired by when the building dates back to, then they will need to look around carefully for the kinds of objects and decorative elements that will enable them to successfully achieve this look. One important area will be the focal point of each room which would have usually been the fireplace.
Some property owners may be worried that they cannot get period fires that look authentic but at the same time offer the modern day efficiency and safety that they would require in their home or commercial property. However, by renovating period fires customers are able to get a much more efficient fire that works on an eight inch flue and at the same time becomes a fantastic centrepiece for the period room.
The renovation of items such as period fires will need to be undertaken by a reputable open fires company who have experience of creating bespoke open fires and restoring period fires to their former glory whilst at the same time providing an efficient fire that does not smoke. Finding someone to carry out this renovation work may prove difficult but one of the best ways to locate a suitable company is by looking online or acting upon the recommendations of family, friends and colleagues.
Once you have found someone who is experienced at renovating period fires you can give them the old fire that you have either discovered in your property or bought from elsewhere and leave it with them for the renovation process. This will involve tailoring the fire so that is meets modern efficiency and safety standards as well as restoring the design of the fire so that it looks authentic.
Period fires really can make a period room come to life and as they are usually the focal point of the room, everything else can then be created around them so as to complete the themed décor to be as authentic as possible.
