The importance of a chimneypiece in the design of a room cannot be overestimated.
Finding the appropriate style of chimneypiece with dimensions that suit the room can be
a challenge. A satisfactory combination of style and scale are essential components in the
successful choice of a chimneypiece and it is often difcult to satisfy both requirements.
It is for this reason that Chesney’s ofer a Made to Order service for all of the designs that
appear on the following pages. A significant proportion of these designs are also available
in a standard size and material from stock but a number are only manufactured to order.
Various factors govern the lead time for manufacture and this will generally be several
months. The extent and intricacy of the carving and the possible requirement to source
rare and unusual materials can be important considerations. There can be no short cuts in
a process that relies on traditional craftsmanship and techniques.
