For the new fireplace in her great room, Rose envisioned a rustic yet refined stone mantle and frescoed chimney piece reminiscent of the simple but well-proportioned architecture of houses she'd visited during trips to Pompeii. Her inspiration carried us through the design process, shaping both the detail of the stone mantle, and the design and colors of the chimney piece fresco. The completed fireplace is magnificent...truly a one-of-a-kind work of art. In Rose's words, "I can't believe I was able to have it EXACTLY as I wanted it!"
