About This Fireplace

The British Fires New Forest 1600 Black Edition brings a bold, luxurious fireplace experience to modern living spaces.

The dark rear glass enhances the flame contrast, giving the fireplace a deeper, richer appearance that feels elegant and refined.

With flexible one-sided, two-sided, or three-sided installation options, the New Forest 1600 can be customized to suit your home’s design. Whether installed beneath a TV, built into a feature wall, or used as a statement fireplace in a living room, it offers a clean, contemporary finish with year-round ambience.
