About the Item

This exquisite Louis XV-style fireplace mantel is a stunning example of 18th-century French craftsmanship, masterfully carved in rare veined Rosso Levanto marble. The serpentine lines, scrolled jambs, and richly sculpted shell cartouche at the center embody the ornate yet balanced Rococo aesthetic of the Louis XV period, which flourished in France from circa 1730 to 1760. The deep, dramatic coloration of the marble—ranging from rich aubergine to ivory veining—adds a sense of opulence and timeless sophistication. Every curve and flourish reflects the influence of nature, movement, and asymmetry that defined the Rococo decorative arts. This mantel is ready to serve as a regal centerpiece in a refined interior, whether traditional or eclectic in style.
