Astria: Georgian 36

A real wood-burning fireplace that frames into the wall.

Quick Facts

• Fuel: Wood.

Who It’s For

You love a real wood fire, but there’s no masonry chimney to build around. You need a wood fireplace that frames into the wall. The Astria Georgian 36 is for the new build or remodel that wants a 36-inch wood-burning fireplace.

What Makes It Special

A full brick-to-face design with no visible smoke shelf, lined with Mosaic Masonry kiln-fired firebrick or Estate Panel refractory in many colors.

It has a massive smoke dome, insulated firebox, heavy steel grate with forged andirons, mesh screens, and optional glass doors. Gas log sets are an option for nights you’d rather not build a fire. Astria backs it with a 20-year limited warranty.

Possible Downsides

• It is a wood fire. You haul and store wood, clean ash, and sweep the chimney.
• Glass doors are sold separately. Astria offers bi-fold glass doors as an option.

If you want a real wood fire built into the wall, the Astria Georgian 36 is the right decision. The fire becomes the reason people gather in that room.

Choose the interior pattern, and add glass doors, outside air kits, or a gas log set.
