About the Item

This rare 19th century period, antique, French fireplace surround is masterfully carved from Portor marble, one of the world’s most exclusive and dramatic stones, celebrated for its deep black base enhanced by golden, white, and amber veining. The composition of this mantel demonstrates exquisite artistry — the symmetrical alignment of the marble’s veins accentuates its sculptural elegance, while the bold lion paw feet anchor it with power and sophistication. The mantel’s design blends neoclassical refinement with a touch of Baroque opulence, making it a versatile center piece that harmonises effortlessly with modern minimalism, contemporary design, or classic interiors adorned with fine art and antiques. Its patina and subtle signs of age reveal its authentic 19th century origin, offering both character and historical presence. Perfect for luxury residences, galleries, or boutique hotels, this Portor marble fireplace mantel transforms any room into an atmosphere of timeless grandeur and exclusivity. Its superb condition and original craftsmanship make it a statement piece for the true connoisseur of fine architectural heritage.
