About the Item
A Fine Irish Neoclassical Late C18th Statuary and Sienna Marble Chimneypiece
An Irish George III chimneypiece of highly elegant form, carved in white statuary marble with veneers of Sienna marble, circa 1790. The central tablet depicts a foliate urn of whimsical construction, the handles springing from the central vessel into bunches of grapes and vine leaves, the base of the vessel an acanthus leaf. The carved corner blocks present a similar abundance, its base and handles carved as laurel leaves. Throughout, the panels of Sienna enliven the delicate carving, adding a rich amber to this chimneypiece.

Late 18th Century Statuary and Sienna Marble Fireplace
Located in London, GB
Provenance: 32 Belgrave Square, thought to have been installed by David Hicks.
A late 18th century style chimneypiece in Statuary and Siena marbles of truly exceptional quality. The moulded shelf, carved with dentils and Egg & Dart, breaks forward above the central tablet and square corner blocks. The tablet depicts a scene of Bacchic putti dancing and revelling with music, some holding grapes and ewers of wine, one holding a Thrysus, a spear headed by an acorn often carried by Bacchus, to the right a putto has the legs of a goat, and centred with a putto riding a finely carved ram. The tablet flanked by a frieze decorated by alternating finger flutes inlaid with Siena, and carved finely carved bows and flowers. The cornerblocks, carved to the front with Roman urns, sit above composite Ionic columns, also inlaid with Siena flutes. The columns are fully detached in the round, on turned socle plinths above square footblocks. The convent Siena is of particularly noteworthy quality. The Ram is emblematic in classical and Georgian sculpture...
