Stone Or Rock Fireplace Designs...
Rustic & Casual

A stone or rock fireplace . . . . . . few architectural elements are as inviting and comforting as a rugged stone hearth with a crackling fire.  Idealized images
of  long  ago,  when  life  seemed  so  much simpler,
dance through our minds.

From  massive granite slabs surround-
ing a great room open fire . . to small pieces of fieldstone embracing a cozy cottage  hearth,  nothing  beats  the look  and  feel  of a traditional design made from man's first -- and oldest -- building material.   The wide range of stone  types and individual variations within  each stone make the stone or
rock  hearth  a  unique  expression of
the stone mason's art form.

River  rock  or  river  stone,  among the most popular choices for casual or rustic fireplace surrounds,  have smooth rounded surfaces due to centuries of water running over them.  Glacial river rock has a wider color range than the more common river rock, which tends to be more brown in color. Stone sizes generally range from 3/8 of an inch up to 24 inches.
