Working through the winter might not be so bad anymore thanks to the Speak fireplace. The Speak fireplace was created by luxury fireplace manufacturers Biocamino as a way of finally bringing the forbidden desktop fireplace to life.
The Speak fireplace features a 3-millimeter ceramic case made by Lea Ceramiche. When winter is over, the hearth can be hidden in the middle of the table so as not to distract you with thoughts of winter during the spring and summer months. The Speak Fireplace has a refined look that should fit well with either retro or contemporary homes. The value of a tabletop fireplace can't be understated as most work desks aren't positioned near the heater (at least not in my house).
