20 Designer Rooms With Marble Fireplace Ideas You'll Want to Recreate
From classic to modern, the possibilities are.
Of all the fireplace surround materials to choose between, marble is arguably the best. Not only can it speak to both classic and modern designs, but it's also a high-performer when it comes to maintenance and longevity. Keep in mind that marble is prone to etching (most natural stone materials are in comparison to their more durable but less luxe composite cousins), but as designer Dries Otten points out, "the first scratch is the deepest," and from there, imperfections only add to an opulent old-world look. Since marble is a natural stone, it ages very gracefully. While it's on the pricier side, though you can find some great reclaimed mantels at flea markets, Facebook Marketplace, or even on the street (speaking from firsthand experience, here—miracles do happen). Or, perhaps you're lucky and happen to live in a space that already has marble fireplaces and you're just here for inspiration on how to decorate it. Whether you're renovating and need some convincing to go the marble fireplace route, or you want to price up a preexisting one, these designer marble fireplaces ensure that you are in the best of hands. Ahead, discover 20 marble fireplaces you'll want to curl up by forever.
