About the Item

Louis XVI French Fireplace in Rare Rose Limestone with Carved Rosettes Make a refined statement with this lovely 19th century Louis XVI fireplace mantel, hand-carved from rare rose-hued limestone and sourced from France. Its delicate pink tonality, flecked with natural mineral patina, exudes warmth and understated luxury—perfect for anchoring both traditional and modern interiors. This architectural piece captures the essence of neoclassical balance and symmetry, hallmarks of the Louis XVI period. The straight-lined entablature is punctuated by finely carved rosettes and geometric panels, each detail meticulously rendered to showcase classical French craftsmanship. The fluted jambs feature softly curved corbels and elegant block feet, combining strength with sculptural grace. Crafted from a scarce variety of French limestone with a distinctive blush tone, this mantel has an inherent softness and timeless elegance that sets it apart. The surface reveals centuries of natural aging, with subtle tonal variations and texture that speak to its authenticity and provenance. Whether styled in a Parisian-inspired salon, a modern farmhouse, or a restored château, this mantel delivers both history and harmony. Key Features: Style: Louis XVI Period: early 19th century Origin: France Material: Rare rose-colored French limestone Color: Soft terracotta-pink with natural mineral patina Decoration: Carved floral rosettes, linear moldings, and classical symmetry Jambs: Fluted with subtle corbels and plinth base Sourced by SchermerhornAntique Fireplaces, this rare and richly colored Louis XVI mantel is a singular addition to any interior seeking character, restraint, and French refinement.

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.
