Fireplaces & Chimneys

Real-life “House Hunters” often put fireplaces near the top of their most-wanted amenities – and miniature homeowners feel the same. Big or small, we love the literal and figurative warmth of a hearth, and the way a fireplace becomes the natural focal point of a cozy room.

Fortunately, adding this much-desired feature is beautifully simple for the dollhouse homeowner. Simply select from the wide range of options available here at miniatures.com and instantly “warm up” a room. Choices run from rustic, cabin-ready stone styles to a sleek and modern wall-mount, with something suitable for just about every era in between.

Scale is always important in miniatures but with fireplaces it has an additional meaning. The wide variety of sizes available here means you can choose one that is the appropriate scale for your room. In large spaces and grand salons, an expansive hearth – or two! – is called for. For smaller areas, perhaps a bedroom or cottage where the biggest mantels would overwhelm the space, there are plenty of scaled-down options for the perfect fit. At miniatures.com, you’ll always find complete measurements right on the item page, so you can know exactly which to choose.

Of course, the choices don’t stop there. Do you want the look of a burning fire – wood or coal, with or without electricity – or a clean, empty hearth for warm-season decorating?

And remember, for the most realistic look, you will likely need to add a chimney on the roof above the fireplace location. We have options for you there as well, which can sit directly on the ridge or fit the roof’s slope. They come either prefinished in brick or plain, for your stone or other surface treatment.

Whatever your choice, we want to help everyone warm up to minis!
