Old Antique Reclaimed Large Stone Fireplace Mantel with Trumeau Overmantle

About the Item

Reclaimed from a castle in Caithness, England, this majestic 115" high mid-18th century hand-carved limestone fireplace is a truly rare and captivating royal masterpiece. It represents an artistic mix of elegance, history and sophistication that has been extremely well kept throughout the years. The perfection within the details of this two-tiered fireplace is quite fascinating. It is a true representation for the skilled craftsmanship and sculptural artistry of the period's master carvers. Engraved right into the trumeau center of this monumental antique mantel is a medieval coat of arms flanked by carved scrollwork. The showcased Trumeau's artwork is amplified by two bordering columns with their intricately carved chapiteaux. Aside from its lovely trumeau's delicate detailing, this magnificently opulent and ornate piece boosts remarkable carvings on its apron, jambs, and corbels as well. Such an adorned grand centerpiece item exudes an ageless resplendence sending it's onlookers on a mesmerizing time travel back to the magnolious days of English glory. Aged to perfection, this ancient overmantle fireplace reflects a strikingly distressed texture and patina with an exquisite creamy limestone color. Aside from normal wear and tear, this very well kept large antique fireplace has no breaks or cracks whatsoever.
