About the Item

This reclaimed Italian buff terracotta fireplace is a rare and unique find. Beautifully crafted in buff terracotta, it is a highly ornate fire surround with carved embellishments throughout: from the floral detail of the jambs to the scrolling swags of the end blocks. Arguably its most notable detail is the figure to the frieze, centring around a side profile of Minerva, the Roman Goddess of War. An interesting and unusual piece, this reclaimed fireplace becomes a unique feature in any interior setting centred around neoclassical styling or beautiful craftsmanship.

Antique French Fireplace in Sandstone
Located in Haarlem, Noord-Holland
Very nice and subtle pinkish French Louis XVI fireplace mantel. The mantel is made from Sandstone from the “Massif de Vosges” called Grès Rose, pink sandstone. One of its unique characters it that the color changes during the day and the way it is lit. It’s unusual shape and nice paneling combined with the leaf decorations make this a modest yet strong decorative piece. It is unrestored, it has some chips and imperfections but this only adds to its beautiful pantina. This mantel can be supplied with returns or can be made to be flush fitted against a wall.
