New Fireplace Mantel Collection in Hand-Crafted Scagliola Stone, Cast in Copper or Pewter
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) June 22, 2007 -- Stone Age Designs introduces a new Fire Place Mantel Collection in Hand-Crafted Scagliola Stone?, cast in Copper and Pewter. These fireplace designs are reminiscent of fireplace mantels from the Italian Renaissance. These new creations have become a part of the Scagliola Stone? Collection of Thierry François that includes custom stone fireplace mantels, and custom stone kitchen hoods that combine Old World elegance with the modern sophistication of today's custom home.
Stone Age Designs __title__ Stone Age Designs (http://www.stoneagedesigns.net/), created by Thierry François is now part of the parent company François & Co. The Company's new Metal Collection - featuring fireplace designs in copper and pewter - is stunning. Each new custom stone fireplace combines the elegance of a historically-inspired design with the modern sophistication of a metallic patina.
Traditionally, a custom stone fireplace mantle created in a fine metal finish was extremely rare, prohibitively expensive, and highly prized by connoisseurs. Reviving a rare, almost forgotten art, François & Co., parent company of Stone Age Designs has refined the original process and created a superb line of Scagliola Stone? fireplace mantels __title__ Fireplace Mantels (http://www.francoisandco.com/index.php?section=collections), cast in copper or pewter and these one-of-a-kind metal patinas are achieved by actually adding fragments of metal into the Scagliola blend.
The new Scagliola Stone? custom stone fireplace mantels provide an elegant alternative to fireplace designs like those in precast stone. The entire collection of stone fireplace mantles cast in Copper or Pewter have the same rich detail and pleasing proportions as all the Stone Age Designs and François & Co. stone products. Superb craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail is the trademark that brings people to our Showcase __title__ Fireplace Showcase (http://www.stoneagedesigns.net/showcase/), and the reason more and more discriminating homeowners are selecting our designs over a cast stone mantel, and concrete products.
François & Co., the parent company of Stone Age Designs, began offering Scagliola Stone? products in the U.S. in the late 1990s. The texture of each of our fireplace designs is as rich as the history of Scagliola. Scagliola is a technique developed in the 17th century, and our "secret Scagliola Stone? process" is the art of mixing together chips of marble, limestone and travertine, and layering the mixture by hand to achieve a natural stone texture of amazing clarity and depth. In little more than a decade, the hand-crafted Scagliola Stone? products of Stone Age Designs and François & Co. have become market leaders and are well-known among homeowners, as well as the design, architectural and builder communities.
A fireplace mantel from Stone Age Designs may also be a customized design to fit any project you are able to imagine. "We have a team of craftsmen," says Thierry François, "that are so skilled; they are able to create the fireplace mantel that you see in your mind."
The pieces are all handmade and unique. We insist that the design of each Scagliola Stone? piece we create, like the Marie Antoinette, has to be just right - every detail crafted to perfection. And today, we use the designs found in castles and estates throughout France as our points of reference.
Discriminating homeowners seek out Stone Age Designs' original Hand-Crafted Scagliola Stone? and hand-carved limestone from Francois & Co., http://www.francoisandco.com/index.php?section=home, for their fine homes. "You will also find custom stone fireplace mantels, stone kitchen hoods, and architectural accents from Stone Age Designs in the homes, and offices of successful businesses and of those who know quality, craftsmanship, and want the best," says Thierry François.
The residents of Atlanta, Charlotte, Orlando and Los Angeles represent only a small portion of discriminating homeowners from across the United States who seek out Stone Age Designs online -- on the Internet -- for their custom mantles and kitchen hoods, as well as for architectural accents and even bath tubs.
