In the years before
widespread distribution of electric power
Australians relied on their fireplaces for
warmth, comfort and the preparation of
food. On any winter's night during the
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries,
Australian families gathered around the
fire to read, sew or discuss the day's
events as the flames gradually turned to
embers.
For repairs and
restoration work on the fireplaces in your
old house, visit your nearest restoration
shop or contact the specialists listed
here.
