Match the hearth to whatever you do with the rest of the surround

understood. wondering about the flat surface on the hearth. will tile look ok? Brick on the other vertical part

One material for the whole thing. If your doing brick. Do brick. All over.

You may be able to remove the brass trim around the surround as shown here

I personally do not like the look of a gas fireplace insert, I think it takes away from the beauty of the fireplace. So I like to cover them up with an appropriate fireplace screen. Thrown in some fireplace tools for added authenticity.
