The Victorian Classic brings graceful period lines and balanced proportions to a premium marble fireplace surround. Hand-finished in authentic Bianca Carrara—quarried in the mountains just outside the city of Carrara—this stone is celebrated for its cool white to blue-grey ground and elegant grey veining, making it an enduring choice for a refined fireplace surround.

prized since Roman times, Carrara offers excellent strength, a fine grain for crisp detailing, and the ability to take superb finishes. Contemporary selections typically present either a cleaner, lightly veined appearance (Carrara C) or a slightly deeper background with stronger grey to near-black movement (Carrara CD)—both complementing the Victorian profile beautifully.

Shown here in a honed finish for a soft, matte surface that gently diffuses light; we also produce Carrara marble fireplace surrounds in a polished option if you prefer higher contrast and reflectivity. Any natural inclusions or areas of brecciation are professionally stabilised—stopped, filled, and finished to blend seamlessly with the chosen surface.

With its generous 75 mm rebate and timeless detailing, the 54" Victorian Classic creates a sophisticated focal point that pairs effortlessly with traditional inserts or a clean, modern chamber—an ideal Marble Fireplace Surround for both period and contemporary interiors.
