Our Heritage
Robert Aagaard and Company was formed over 40 years ago, and today we
are widely recognised as a foremost specialist in classical chimneypieces
crafted in traditional wood, stone and marble. The precisely measured
moulding and meticulously detailed hand-carved decoration are hallmarks
of the very highest standards of craftsmanship, and duly reflect the
immense pride taken in the manufacture of every Robert Aagaard product.
Our design service faithfully emulates chimneypieces of the seventeenth,
eighteen and nineteenth centuries. In addition we offer, from stock,
antique chimneypieces in wood, marble and stone, along with cast iron
basket grates, hob grates and other ancillary accoutrements.
Our handcrafted firesurrounds, are drawn from designs dating back to
the seventeenth century and, lovingly crafted by highly skilled cabinetmakers
and carvers, are available in a choice of woods. Each captures the beauty
and delicacy of the finely carved flowers and foliage to achieve an intricate
and classical form, so highly regarded by architects of the eighteenth
century.
Many firesurrounds can be produced in scaled-down sizes, enabling smaller
rooms to be graced with all the timeless elegance of the original. A
choice of fine marble from around the world is also available to perfectly
complement every Robert Aagaard firesurround.
