Where can I get Harry Palmer's fireplace?

I'm struggling to find a decent new fireplace. This one from 1960s spy thriller The Ipcress File looks quite good. In fact, it's not Harry Palmer's fireplace, it's that of his boss, Dalby in his posh spacious office but you get the idea.

I'm based in Surrey, but the websites of local shops tend to show the same kind of thing. Is it possible or even advisable to get second-hand fireplaces? It's to go around a chimney that could make for a functional fire.

That looks like an original marble ore surround. For something like that I would look in architectural salvage/reclamation yards. I am in Scotland so have no idea about locations in Surrey.

It’s perfect safe to buy a second hand fire surround and mantelpiece as long as it’s fitted properly.

Thanks BelindaBelle - on reflection it may be a bit full on for my living room but salvage yards are an interesting idea.
