Discover the Charm of Glass Stove Hearths
Glass stove hearths have gained popularity in recent times, thanks to their sleek design and modern appeal. This article will shed light on the lesser-known facts about these attractive additions to your home.
- Diverse Finishing Options
One common misconception about glass hearths is that they only come in a clear finish. In reality, they are available in a variety of finishes, including smoked (tinted) or black. These finishes add to the hearth's modern appeal, blending seamlessly with contemporary home interiors.
1.1 Smoked (Tinted) Glass Hearths
Smoked glass hearths offer a subtle view of the floor underneath while maintaining a stylish, modern look. They are a great choice for those who seek a balance between visibility and style.
1.2 Black Glass Hearths
For a bolder statement, black glass hearths are an excellent choice. These hearths are not limited to black; they can be painted in any colour to match your home décor. However, to process this, you will need to provide your RAL colour code.
- Versatile Shapes and Designs
Glass hearths are not just versatile in terms of finishes, but they also come in an array of shapes and designs. From traditional rectangular designs to circular and inset hearths, there is a glass hearth to suit every individual requirement.
2.1 Traditional Rectangular Glass Hearths
The standard rectangular glass hearths are classic and timeless, fitting seamlessly into any home interior.
2.2 Circular and Inset Hearths
For a unique touch, circular and inset hearths are a great choice. They can be used as per your individual requirement to create a unique focal point in your room.
2.3 Teardrop and Clipped Corners Glass Hearths
The teardrop glass hearth features a curved front, making it a perfect fit for corners. Similarly, glass hearths with clipped corners provide a unique look, transforming your stove into a focal point.
- Customizable Size Options
In addition to the array of shapes and designs, glass hearths also offer size customization. Whether you need a clear or coloured glass hearth, you can opt for a bespoke service that extends to a maximum size of 1000mm x 1150mm.
- Affordability
While traditional hearths made from slate, granite, limestone, or sandstone are often pricier, glass hearths are a more affordable alternative. They offer the same aesthetic appeal and functionality as their traditional counterparts but at a lower cost.
