"Fireplace and home" is a widely mentioned concept. It's more about the comforts a home brings and the most common focal element of a gathering place - the fireplace. For centuries, family and friends have gathered around the fireplace to have a good time. There are many definitions of the word fireplace, but most people think it refers to the space near or around a fireplace, rather than simply a stove that produces flames to drive away the cold and loneliness.

Fireplaces have been around since humans discovered fire. Prehistoric fireplaces were first discovered in ancient caves and campsites. Fast-forward a few thousand years, and the ancient Greek fireplace is still so outstanding in art, beauty and history that there was a goddess named after it, Hestia. The Byzantine Empire once levied a fireplace tax, in which the government collected money from every household that installed a fireplace. To this day, this stove tax remains one of the best evidences of a medieval population boom, considering fireplaces were a living hotspot.

Fast forward again to the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries, and fireplaces have ceased to be an essential part of the home, but have established their rightful place as works of art and treasured heirlooms. But the fireplace is still regarded as the birthplace of all good things, the birthplace of fairy tales. Thanks to advances in human heating technology, fireplaces are no longer as vital to survival as they once were.

By the end of the 20th century and into the new millennium, with the advent of central heating and cooling, it made no sense to have a fireplace in the home. Today, many homes may not have fireplaces. In a way, however, this drastic decline of the fireplace has reawakened its importance and uniqueness and placed it once again at the pinnacle of social buying and consumption trends.

In many old buildings that still have fireplaces, people there use fireplaces like their ancestors did many years ago, and still use them as the center of family gatherings; and some friends who collect art and souvenirs quickly are also warm to this , character and charm of the stove with a soft spot. So, you may not see a fireplace in every house, but when the fireplace is imprinted in your eyes, its indelible combined use over the past few centuries has not been annihilated with the passage of time.

On the contrary, it is a certain degree of evolution. Just like the word fireplace itself, it originally carried the rigid need for heating of ancient humans. They lived in caves, curled up for warmth, and longed to survive. Over time, it has evolved into a unique and symbolic emphasis on representation at parties and families. If the development of human beings is a history of struggle with nature, then the changes of fireplaces are a brief history of fire spirits who protect human beings.
