The fireplace surround turns a quality and elegant fireplace mantel into a true showpiece. And as with the mantels, surrounds come in different styles to suit any room. The surround also has a functional use. It is used to narrow the opening of the fireplace mantel to the right size for your fireplace.

Founded in 1835 in the United Kingdom, Balmer Architectural Mouldings has gained an unequalled reputation for being the most expert and professional manufacturer of quality fireplace surrounds, mantels, and overmantels.
