About the Item

This elegant French Louis XVI mantel is carved from soft-toned limestone, epitomizing the restrained neoclassical style of the late 18th century. Its clean, rectilinear profile – with a broad rectangular shelf and straight, fluted jambs – echoes the simplicity of Greek temple architecture Delicate carvings enliven this serene form: each end block bears a finely rendered floral rosette, and a centered motif adorns the frieze. These subtle botanical details add just the right touch of ornament to the composition, in keeping with Louis XVI’s balanced aesthetic The overall effect is one of quiet architectural harmony – a mantelpiece that feels both solidly classical and warmly inviting. Dimensions: Overall 112 cm H × 162.5 cm W × 32 cm D (approx. 44″×64″×12.6″); Interior opening 95 cm H × 133 cm W (37.4″×52.36). Its generous scale and well-considered proportions make it suitable for grand and medium-sized fireplaces alike.
