Carron Crocus Cast Iron Combination Fireplace
The Carron Crocus Fireplace is a delicate yet striking design that embodies the elegance of the Art Nouveau period. Its distinctive floral detailing flows gracefully down the slender frame, while the tall fire opening and textured canopy create a refined focal point full of charm and character. Compact in size, the Crocus is perfect for adding personality and warmth to smaller spaces without overwhelming the room.
Stylish and Space-Saving
Unlike larger mantels, the Crocus is a combination fireplace, meaning the surround, fireback, and mantel shelf are cast as a single piece. This makes it not only easier to install but also ideal for rooms where space is limited, such as bedrooms, dining rooms, studies, or hallways. Despite its smaller stature, the intricate floral castings ensure it makes just as much of an impression as larger designs.
Two Distinct Finishes
This cast iron fireplace is available in two finishes to suit different interiors. The matt black version offers a traditional look and is the best option for homes planning to use the fireplace with a real fire, while the hand-polished option highlights the fine casting work with a shimmering silver tone, making it an eye-catching decorative piece even without a working fire.
Flexible Heating Options
The Crocus can be enjoyed in several ways depending on your preference:
As a solid fuel fire when paired with the optional Ashpan Tray, allowing you to burn wood or coal.
With a dedicated gas fire insert, complete with a realistic coal-effect fuel bed for instant convenience.
Or as a decorative feature only, enhancing the room with period elegance without the need for a working flame.
Please note: Gas fires are not suitable for installation in bedrooms, and polished finishes may tarnish if used with real fires.
Completing the Look
To finish the fireplace, Carron offers a selection of granite hearths in both one-piece and four-piece designs. For decorative or gas fire use, a one-piece hearth is sufficient, while solid fuel setups require a four-piece hearth for safety and durability. This flexibility ensures the Crocus can be styled and installed to suit your chosen setup.
