Fireplaces Forged with the Heritage of Craftsmanship Handcrafting A Custom Work of Art
The Colors & Textures of Authenticity
For over 40 years, Eldorado Stone has demonstrated an undeniable passion for creating authentic products that not only elevate quality and design, but also attainability. Our commitment to this philosophy continues with our striking collection of Eldorado Fireplace Surrounds.
Eldorado Fireplace Surrounds are available in three colors– designed to represent the various types of natural limestones found across France and other parts of Europe. Choose from two finishes including Honed, a smooth texture, or Travertine, a more textured surface. Both finishes include color and texture variations, providing the authentic character and attributes of natural stone.
Our fireplace surrounds are designed to bring elegance and warmth to a wide variety of architectural styles. It all begins with a proprietary blend of limestone aggregates, minerals, natural pigments and special bonding agents. The material is hand applied layer by layer into the mold– creating natural color and texture variations– guaranteeing no two surrounds are exactly alike. Once the surround is removed from the mold, our skilled artisans hand finish each piece through a four-step finishing process.
For those who admire a more distressed and aged appearance, Eldorado offers a distinctive color and finish called Antique Castello. Eldorado artisans masterfully distress the edge and surface details to recreate the weathered appearance of surrounds often found in classical architecture.
