About the Item

This antique French mantel, crafted from Balacet marble in the 1880s, showcases exquisite Empire-style design and exceptional craftsmanship. The centerpiece features a hand-carved geometric triangular motif on the keystone, adding a striking focal point. Both mantel legs begin with a geometric square motif at the top, followed by intricately carved scrollwork floral details. Below these, a rectangular geometric design enhances the symmetry, culminating in masterfully carved lion’s paw feet, creating the illusion of animal legs. This reclaimed mantel is a true testament to timeless artistry and elegance.
