The flickering flames of a fire not only heats up an interior but also adds a comforting, homely atmosphere to any space. Lit or not, a well-designed stone fireplace becomes a focal point that can enhance the feeling and aesthetics of an interior.

The natural textures and varying tones of stone can provide a warm, tactile quality to a contemporary or traditional space. They help create inviting interiors, perfect for gathering around whether to warm up or enjoy the company of others.

These 12 indoor stone fireplaces will provide you with the inspiration to use the beauty of natural stone in creating the ultimate feature.
