Have an original marble fireplace here which has been unfortunately been fitted with a modern 'insert' at some time. I've picked up a nice period cast iron one - but this looks like it is fitted first, then the marble surround added. So how do I go about removing the surround - preferably with as little damage to either it or the surrounding plaster? The latter not being quite so important as I'm re-decorating anyway.
