While the actual fireplace is not a new development the creation of a fireplace which is produced and sold outside the Amish community is relatively new and it has some features which are sure to delight anyone who has a love for handcrafted fine furniture. You may be wondering how the Amish create a fireplace especially of wood. It is relatively simple. A solid wood shell is created including a mantle. This is done in the traditional woodworking styles and done with fine hardwoods. Next an electric space heater is installed within the shell. The type of space heater will vary depending on who you go to as a retailer. Normally, these space heaters are designed to look like a real fire and usually the entire thing is built on wheels so you can simply move it to whatever room you choose making it extremely convenient.
It is the mantle that brings true value to the piece. It is the main focal point and is handcrafted using the finest in woods and traditional techniques that the Amish are famous for. This means that the piece is designed to last for years and the finish that is used provides moisture resistance and can actually withstand the use of acetone based nail polish making it perfect for an heirloom piece. These mantles are available in oak, cherry, maple and quarter sawn oak. They also come in a variety of sizes making them perfect for any space. They also come in a variety of styles including Charleston, Shaker, Mission, Covington, Modesto and Westlake.
Solid Hardwood Bookcases
You can also purchase a custom made mantle for traditional fireplaces. They are designed to mount on the wall and are intended strictly to mount a standard pre-existing fireplace. Because it is custom made customers have a choice between a number of woods, styles and finishes they can be assured their piece will be individually handled and crafted. They, of course, are created with the same standards of excellence that other Amish furniture pieces are.
Just as with any other piece of fine furniture whether you are purchasing the mantle as a show piece or a functional piece and no matter where you put it, it is designed to last for generations and should be considered an investment when it comes to furniture. Heirloom quality furniture is about the only type of furniture which does not depreciate in value over time but actually becomes more valuable especially when it is furniture that is hand crafted and designed by the Amish because they are known for their traditional techniques, excellent designs, and superior craftsmanship. Whether you are looking for a freestanding fireplace such as the ones that have recently joined the furniture market or you are looking for a mantle for an existing wall fireplace that will add warmth and beauty to your home you should consider Amish fireplaces and mantles. They will provide you with an excellence found no where else.
