With its clean, vertical lines, the American Hearth contemporary portrait fireplace adds a striking design element to modern home decor. The vertical motif carries through to the interior, where multiple folds in the porcelain liner add to the illusion of height. The rich black porcelain reflects the fire to create depth and enhance visual interest, from any position in the room. The dual-burner system resides in an earthenware bowl filled with crushed glass. Choose a black or white bowl and fill it with one or more colors of crushed glass. The multifunction thermostatic remote control operates the fireplace and can vary the flame height of the main burner. The remote lets you vary the accent lighting system located in the fireplace floor and even operate an unrelated appliance (such as a lamp or holiday decorations) plugged into the outlet beneath the fireplace. The clean-face design allows tile or stonework to reach the edge of the window frame.
