About the Item
A Late Georgian Style Chimneypiece in White Statuary Marble Inlaid with Fine and Rare Specimens of Blue-John Stone
A 20th century fireplace with a simple moulded shelf supported by a central tablet carved with a Neoclassical urn, paterae and ribbons tied with bellflower. The frieze and jambs are inlaid with fine and rare specimens of Blue-John stone in stylised anthemion (or palmette) details.
The decorative patterns of this chimneypiece recall the colourful motifs used by Robert Adam for interiors, as shown by one of his sketches for a fireplace frieze here below. Adam made use of Neoclassical ornaments such as the palmette to create light and colourful decorative schemes, beautifully imitated on the present chimneypiece.

View AllLate 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...
