About the Item
This exceptional 17th-century French fireplace surround is crafted from a warm, honey-beige limestone that is gently aged with natural patina, exuding a subtle rustic sophistication. Its hand-carved contours and graceful curved jambs reflect the traditional craftsmanship of the French provinces during the Louis XIV period.
The piece shows some authentic wear and has undergone a few minor restorations, yet it remains in excellent condition and is ready for immediate installation.
Timeless and noble, this original mantelpiece offers an inviting architectural focal point, equally at home in a Parisian hôtel particulier or an Alpine chalet. A similar model is celebrated for enhancing the authentic ambiance of the prestigious Les Fermes de Marie in Megève — a renowned luxury retreat known for blending historical character with contemporary comfort.
With its soft, tactile limestone surface and restrained, rustic elegance, this antique surround evokes the warmth and serenity of bygone centuries. Ideal for restoration projects, statement interiors, or alpine-style homes seeking authenticity.
