Monochrome glamour with J. Rotherham’s Modern Bolection Fireplace

Create monochromatic glamour with J. Rotherham’s hand finished and truly contemporary Modern Bolection Fireplace, featured in its Modern Collection of stone fireplace surrounds.  

From Georgian to French and Jacobean, J. Rotherham’s Modern Collection of fireplaces give a nod to the UK’s rich cultural heritage all the while adopting a modern approach to both design and look in the rest of your home.

J. Rotherham’s Modern Bolection Fireplace surround is made in Britain and expertly hand finished in a choice of British limestones; Portland, Creeton, Guiting, Ancaster and Bathstone. The above model is seen here in Portland limestone. J. Rotherham’s Portland Stone is quarried from the Isle of Portland in Dorset and has a worldwide reputation as one of the most prestigious building materials available; the ideal backdrop for the Modern Bolection’s clean-cut aesthetic.

A special stain repellent is applied to every stone fireplace from J. Rotherham; offering greater protection against household products that could stain the surface. J. Rotherham’s permanent nano-bonding technology that is added to the stone goes beyond conventional sealers, as once professionally applied it creates a natural bond with the stone to eliminate any further application over time. This technology also ensures breathability for all J. Rotherham products to ensure the stone retains its natural surface colour and finish by preventing moisture build up.

The world of contemporary design is a complex one, with homeowners now able to choose from any number of styles or pastiche eras from the past. J. Rotherham’s Modern Collection of fireplaces reflects, offering an eclectic range of modern designs for the 21st century home.

Unmistakably influenced by historic movements, J. Rotherham’s Modern Collection errs towards understated sleekness rather than elaborate decoration and one advantage to such a look is its adaptability. Simple, attractive and clean curves accentuated by defined edge detailing is all it takes for J. Rotherham’s Modern Bolection Fireplace to fulfill its contemporary persona.

Proportion is vital - If the fireplace is too small it will become lost and somewhat irrelevant - if it’s too large then it will dominate the entire space. Opt for a bespoke, modern design with minimal detailing and it will allow easy up or down-scaling to be adapted to the size and shape of your property.

Design & Style – Many fireplace designs from the 18th and 19th century can look deceptively modern, featuring the same minimalist styling that epitomise many 21st century homes. Use both traditional and contemporary styles together and create a modern classic interior for you to enjoy.
