Adobe fireplace

We built this adobe fireplace in a small bungalow at the Sequatchie Valley Institute, near Chattanooga, TN. We covered it with an earthen plaster, then an earthen paint. We corbeled in some shelves, and I cut old mirrors and set them in the plasater to amplify candlelight that was placed on the shelves.
