The front door of this older home featured lunette carvings very much like these. I patterned mine off the door’s, but stretched and adjusted them to fit the fireplace size. The wood is original to the home. The original surround was a very stained and ugly marble.

With a new slate hearth and inner surround and a proper Tudor arch, the improvement is tremendous.

I learned a good deal in the act of working within the vein of a 1920’s carver, and enjoyed the challenge.
