About the Item

A highly decorative limestone chimneypiece in Medieval Gothic style. The shelf with a dentil motif is supported by a frieze carved with quatrefoil details. Tracery panels define the jambs. The detailed decorative elements of this chimneypiece are a direct interpretation of the 15th century Gothic architecture. These forms were revived during the 19th century during a time when architects were seeking a response to the canons of Neo-classicism, which by then had been the bases of British architecture for almost two centuries.
