Our Story
Our Story
Allwood Stone Fireplaces was founded with a single purpose — to bring the finest hand-finished limestone surrounds to the UK trade market. Every piece in our collection is crafted in Portugal, where centuries of stone-working tradition meet modern precision.
We work directly with skilled artisans in Portugal, selecting only the highest quality limestone before each surround is hand-finished and quality checked. The result is a product that carries genuine character — no two pieces are exactly alike.
bespoke sizing
Any of the Limestone designs shown can be customised to suit your individual requirements

A change in hearth size to accommodate a carpet cut-out. Making it deeper to suit fires, or having sensor lights made taller, shorter, or wider.
made to measure slips
We also offer made-to-measure slips in a variety of stones and colours to suit all different makes, types, sizes of gas and electric fires and solid fuel appliances.

The Material
Portuguese Limestone
Portugal is home to some of the world's finest limestone deposits. The stone we use is quarried and finished locally, giving each surround its distinctive warm tone and natural texture. Portuguese limestone is renowned for its density, durability, and the depth of its finish — qualities that make it the material of choice for discerning interior designers and architects.
How We Work
Craftsmanship
Each surround is expertly finished by skilled craftsmen in Portugal. From the initial cut to the final surface treatment, every stage is carried out with the closest attention to detail — ensuring a level of quality and consistency. Bespoke sizing is available across the full collection.
