About the Item

A refined and stately French Louis XVI period fireplace mantel, crafted circa 1780–1790, in richly variegated Rouge Royal marble. This neoclassical masterpiece features a linear architectural form with strong symmetry, fluted pilasters, and a paneled frieze enhanced by delicate vertical grooves and classical motifs. The deep rouge marble is dramatically veined with white and soft rose tones, enhancing the mantel’s sculptural depth and historical grandeur. Measuring 61 inches in shelf length, with a generous 42-inch firebox opening, the piece balances elegance with presence—making it ideal for both period restorations and sophisticated modern interiors. Its clean lines and restrained ornamentation are hallmark elements of the Louis XVI style, which marked a return to antiquity-inspired forms and refined detail, following the exuberance of the Rococo. Beautifully preserved and rare in this scale and quality, this mantel is an exceptional example of 18th-century French craftsmanship—equally suited for collectors, designers, and connoisseurs of classical architecture.
