Sculpt Fireplace Collection, an esteemed name in the Australian market, offers some of the world’s most luxurious and high-performing fireplaces. Its commitment to excellence is evident in its wide selection of award-winning designs, which showcase the finest materials, including 100 per cent pure cast iron. This dedication to quality ensures that each fireplace not only provides exceptional warmth but also stands as a piece of art in its own right.

The Seguin Multivision 8000 3V, crafted by Seguin Duteriez in France, epitomises the pinnacle of fireplace design. It is cast and assembled by hand with meticulous attention to detail, using an individual mould that is employed only once to ensure a perfect caste every time. The model features a striking three-sided glass viewing area, allowing for an immersive visual experience of the flames from multiple perspectives. Constructed from pure cast iron with a thickness of 8-10 millimetres –­ much thicker than the industry standard of 4-6 millimetres for cast fireplaces – it ensures superior durability and heat retention. Even after the fire has diminished, the fireplace continues to radiate warmth, enhancing the home’s comfort well into the cooler months.

Designed for versatility, the Multivision 8000 3V can be installed as both a built-in and freestanding unit, complementing various interior styles.
