Shipping Historic Denver Architectural Piece


This fireplace surround  was designed by the Fischer and Fischer architectural firm for use in the Belcaro mansion, an important Building in Denver’s history.  Built in 1931 the Phipps family commissioned  this 33,000 square foot home to provide jobs during the Great Depression. The home has some seventy rooms, one of which was specifically for eating breakfast in. That is where this fireplace was located. I personally  prefer my breakfast at the kitchen counter top Shipping Historic Denver Architectural Piecebut not everybody can live the pampered lifestyle I live. The Phipps family took philanthropy seriously,  they would later donate the house and grounds to the University of Denver and were very active in the support of the 
Denver Museum of Nature and Science.
