This Windsor design fireplace inserts by Valor, Inc. fits perfectly with our Rothton mantel. Perfect for that Old English look, a time when inserts were installed to burn coal. The Rothton without the decorative keystone will also look great. This photo is from a customer taken during the installation. We are looking forward to seeing the finished product!
