The Tile Fireplace Surround...
Amazing Arts & Crafts Creations!

The tile fireplace surround images featured here showcase a present-day collection of striking fireplace tile designs inspired by the Arts and Crafts Movement of more than a century ago . . . . .

. . . . . Undoubtedly,  the founders of the movement would very much applaud the extraordinary work of their successors!

The finely crafted fireplace design pic-
tured  at  left  is  from Debey Zito Fine Furniture and Design, based in the San Francisco Bay Area of California,  USA. Debey works with many artisans in her interior work,  as in this exquisitely de-
signed project.   Note how the tile de-
sign  surrounding  the  firebox  opening echos   the   beautifully  hand  carved doors   concealing   a  flat  screen  TV above the mantel shelf.

The  striking  Arts and Crafts design that follows is from North Prairie Tile-
works, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.   The tile fireplace surround features  blue  field  tile  with  Rookwood deco tiles and small dark red tile accents.

The handsome fireplace design that follows is from Doty Tile,  another firm based in the San Francisco Bay Area. It features beautiful tile from Motawi Tileworks.

The lovely Arts and Crafts design that follows is by Michelle Nelson, an in-
terior design consultant who also collaborated with Doty Tile on  the  fire-
place design pictured above.   Once again, the tile surrounding the firebox opening is from Motawi Tileworks.

The  stunning tile fireplace surround at right and in the two images that follow is  another  design  from  North Prairie Tileworks. It features a gargoyle motif, as shown in the close-up of the  relief tile  with  a white paver glaze at right, as  well  as  the  gargoyle head above the center of the firebox opening, pic-
tured below.  Dark blue green and rust red  field  tiles are intricately arranged to   create  a  beautifully  contrasting fireplace hearth and  surround  --  in-
cluding  the formation of pilasters with capitals  that rise from the the hearth to "support" the mantel shelf.  Framing the  perimeter  of  the firebox opening, itself,  is  a pair of fluted legs support-
ing an elaborately moulded row of tiles across the top of the opening.

Enhancing the architectural interest and visual appeal of this design is its slightly recessed placement in the wall.    The complementary decorative scheme of wallpaper and wood moldings that frames it on either side,  as well  as  the  finely  finished  paneling above the mantel shelf, add to the richness of the overall composition.

Departing significantly from the fireplace tile design pictured above is the "Chinese Lattice Fireplace" that follows. Also from North Prairie Tileworks, this  understated  but elegant design features a bronze patina glaze with dark blue green relief tiles.

And  finally,  the  beautiful tile fireplace surround pictured below is another fine installation by Doty Tile. Inspired by the work of the legendary Greene brothers at the Blacker House (1907) in Pasadena,  California,  it  features handcrafted tiles made by Diane Winters of Winters Tileworks.
