19th Century Victorian Calacatta Marble Fireplace Surround.

About the Item

A generous sized 19th Century Victorian Calacatta marble fireplace surround. The thick square edged shelf over an unadorned frieze, flanked by wide and tall jambs with intermittent block and splayed moulding at the base frieze line level, all resting on splayed foot block work. The marble veining on this piece flows well, showing all the elements of this luxurious marble, this piece would be at home in a contemporary or period setting. English 1880c Fire opening size: 930mm high x 890mm wide shown in photo. (max fire opening width on this piece is 1000mm) the width can be increased or decreased to suit. Each leg width: 180mm Overall base width as shown in photos: 1275mm Shelf thickness: 44mm Shown with a polished steel fireplace insert, not included, but available separately on our 1st dibs listings. Calacatta Marble: Italian Calacatta Marble is distinctive with its thick, bold veining. Rather than the plentiful soft veins of a marble like Carrara, Calacatta's hallmark is fewer but more dramatic and unstructured veins. Overall the color has a global appeal with designers and architects due to its soothing white background, veining, and color tone. (The whiter the background the more expensive and desirable these marbles get.)
