About the Item

A striking mid-19th century fireplace mantel crafted from fine black Belgian marble, dating to the 1840s. This elegant architectural piece showcases classic proportions and intricate carvings, including bold acanthus leaves and volutes on the jambs, with a central rosette adorning the frieze. The deep black patina of the marble offers a timeless sophistication, making it a perfect centerpiece for both traditional and contemporary interiors. A small chip is present under the shelf, consistent with age and use, and does not detract from its imposing presence. Condition: Very good overall; minor chip beneath the shelf (see detail photo). Origin: Belgium, circa 1840 This rare and noble piece brings the charm of 19th century European craftsmanship into any refined setting.
