Neoclassical Fireplaces and Mantels
NEOCLASSICAL STYLE
Neoclassical design emerged in Europe in the 1750s, as the Age of Enlightenment reached full flower. Neoclassical furniture took its cues from the styles of ancient Rome and Athens: symmetrical, ordered, dignified forms with such details as tapered and fluted chair and table legs, backrest finials and scrolled arms.
Over a period of some 20 years, first in France and later in Britain, neoclassical design — also known as Louis XVI, or Louis Seize — would supersede the lithe and curvaceous Rococo or Louis XV style.
The first half of the 18th century had seen a rebirth of interest in classical antiquity. The "Grand Tour" of Europe, codified as a part of the proper education of a patrician gentleman, included an extended visit to Rome. Some ventured further, to sketch the ruins of ancient Greece. These drawings and others — particularly those derived from the surprising and rich archaeological discoveries in the 1730s and ’40s at the sites of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum — caused great excitement among intellectuals and aesthetes alike.
Neoclassical furniture is meant to reflect both grace and power. The overall appearance of neoclassical chairs, tables and cabinetry is strong and rectilinear. These pieces are, in effect, classical architecture in miniature: chair and table legs are shaped like columns; cabinets are constructed with elements that mirror friezes and pediments.
Yet neoclassicism is enlivened by gilt and silver leaf, marquetry, and carved and applied ornamental motifs based on Greek and Roman sculpture: acanthus leaves, garlands, laurel wreaths, sheaves of arrow, medallions and chair splats are carved in the shapes of lyres and urns. Ormolu — or elaborate bronze gilding — was essential to French design in the 18th and 19th centuries as a cornerstone of the neoclassical and Empire styles.
As you can see from the furniture on these pages, there is a bit of whimsy in such stately pieces — a touch of lightness that will always keep neoclassicism fresh.

18th Century Bossi Hand-Carved Statuary Marble Fireplace with Scagliola Inlay
By Pietto Bossi
Located in London, GB
This white hand-carved marble chimney-piece with Scagliola inlay and break fronted shelf attributed to Pietro Bossi who is known to have worked in Dublin from 1785-1798.
Not much is known about Pietro Bossi, although much inlay work of the late 18th century is commonly known as`Bossi-work'. An Italian craftsman, Bossi worked in Dublin from 1785-1798 and used colored marble inlay and also a colored paste inlay, known as Scagliola, on a white marble ground.
His designs are in the neoclassical style, a style disseminated by Robert Adam in 1770s. Bossi`s process was a closely guarded secret and was apparently carried out behind closed doors.
Although, there were other craftsmen producing this type of work, the present chimney-piece can be attributed to Bossi because it shares some distinctive decoration with other pieces strongly believed to be by him. The overall style is typical of Bossi.
This unique marble fireplace mantel-piece is believed to originate from a wing of Huntroyde Hall...

Fan-Carved Wood Mantel in the Federal Taste
Located in New York, NY
New York,
Fan-carved mantel in the Federal taste, circa 1812
Pine
Measures: 66 1/4 in. high, 90 3/8 in. wide, 13 1/4 in. deep
Within the genre of carved rather than plasterwork mantels of the Federal Period, no example that has come to light is more perfectly designed or more carefully wrought than the present one, which is an amazing symphony of fans, urns, beads, and other Neo-Classical devices, all ultimately influenced by the plasterwork designs of the English architects Robert (1728–1792) and James (1732–1794) Adam.
Of a type that proliferated in the area bounded by the northern New Jersey counties of Bergen and Passaic, the Hudson Valley, and western Long Island, the mantel is representative of work that flourished in the first couple of decades of the 19th century. While most of the woodwork of this style that has survived is found in interiors, various examples of exterior doors and other trim have been noted, but most examples have disappeared as a result, variously, of natural deterioration and purposeful demolition in anticipation of development.
Although considerably larger in scale and more elaborate in ornament than a mantel that has been in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum since 1944 (acc. no. 44.55; photograph in Hirschl & Adler archives), the present mantel is so close in style and conception to that example that it likely originated in the same house.
The Brooklyn mantel is documented as having been removed from a house built by Judge Isaac Terhune (1762–1837), an eminent lawyer and judge. The house was situated on King’s Highway, at the corner of Mansfield Place, at the edge of South Greenfield, a village in northern Gravesend, Brooklyn. A photograph of the house, taken by the German e´migre´ photographer, Eugene Armbruster (1865–1933), is in the collection of the New-York Historical Society.
Terhune is ultimately descended from the Dutch-Huguenot e´migre´ Albert Albertson Terhunen, who died in Flatlands, Brooklyn, in 1685.The family eventually spread out through New Amsterdam, Long Island, and Bergen County, New Jersey. Terhune’s great-grandson, also Albert (1715–1806), left a sizable estate to his six surviving children, including his second child and second son, Isaac.
Judge Terhune lived in the house until his death in 1837, at which time, according to an article in The New York Times for November 27, 1910, he, having died without issue, “left the White Frame Mansion with its exquisitely carved doorway, beautiful mantels, and other interior adornments to his brother John” (Part Six, p. 11).
The article continues:
After the latter’s death, the house and its estate of about 70 acres passed through several owners, eventually being purchased in 1853 by Benjamin G. Hitchings [1813–1893].
The house next passed to Benjamin’s son, Hector, who had been born in the house, and then lived there for 25 years. He sold it in 1910 in partial payment for a Manhattan apartment house. After thus having been sold to a real estate developer, the Hitchings property was subdivided into Hitchings Homestead. The house survived until about 1928, at which time it was razed and a Deco-style apartment house with the address 2301 Kings Highway was constructed on the site and occupied in 1935.
By 1910, the fate of the house, in an area of Brooklyn that was being rapidly developed, was becoming obvious. The Times article reported:
The house has been well kept up, but fearing lest the hand of time or vandals might deal harshly with some of its choice bits of carving, Mr. Hitchings removed a few years ago a few beautifully carved wood mantels...
