The Blenheim Fireplace
A refined Regency-inspired mantel with crisp lines and modern simplicity
The Blenheim Fireplace is an exercise in understated architectural elegance: clean, square proportions, a bold yet uncluttered mantel shelf and a precisely framed opening that gives a strong focal point without overpowering the room. Designed to sit beautifully with contemporary stoves and minimalist interiors, its quiet classical presence brings order, balance and an inviting sense of permanence—crafted to order in your choice of premium stone.

Design Heritage
The Blenheim draws on the calm restraint of late Georgian and Regency design—where proportion is the ornament. Its rectilinear form and disciplined symmetry echo classical architecture, reinterpreted for today’s homes with a streamlined profile that feels both timeless and distinctly current.
The Details
Look closely and the appeal is all in the geometry: a substantial, flat mantel shelf with crisp edges; a broad, plain frieze that keeps the silhouette calm; and square, block-like legs that read as modern pilasters. The inner aperture is cleanly stepped to create depth and shadow, offering a sharp frame for a stove or fire chamber without any carved distraction.
Proportions & Presence
With its generous shelf and deep, well-defined opening, The Blenheim makes a confident statement while remaining visually quiet. The wide header line grounds artwork or a mirror above, while the strong vertical legs give the piece an architectural “built-in” feel—ideal for living rooms that want a centrepiece that’s composed rather than ornate.
Styling Suggestions
Style The Blenheim with a simple framed mirror, contemporary artwork or a pair of symmetrical lamps to emphasise its classical balance. It suits modern and transitional schemes particularly well—think clean-lined sofas, warm timbers and tonal walls—while a darker fire chamber or insert will heighten the crisp framing effect. Crafted to order and available in a range of natural stones, it’s an easy anchor for both pared-back and richly layered interiors.
