Jamb.
Pelham
The English Regency style was named after George, Prince of Wales – the eldest son of George III – who became the Prince Regent in 1811 during his father’s illness. The style reached its peak with the extravagance of Carlton House in London and Brighton Pavilion in Sussex. This relatively plain chimneypiece, with leaf and flower head carved paterae end blocks, reflects the refined elegance of the period.

HaywoodThis traditional, polished steel register grate combines simplicity with sophisticated Adam design. Glossop’s Stove Makers’ Assistant, published in 1771, illustrates a number of these newly fashionable late 18th Century register grates. Similar grates made by the Carron ironworks in Scotland and the Coalbrookdale foundry in Shropshire can be found among the drawings of Robert Adam.

The Soane
This white marble fireplace almost severe and minimalist in character, is based on the designs of Sir John Soane (1753–1837). Soane travelled to Italy in the late 18th Century, before returning to establish a highly successful architectural career, working in an increasingly abstract version of the neoclassical style. Among his great buildings were the Bank of England and Dulwich College.
