Rare Pair of 19th Century Louis XV Seravezza Marble Chimneypieces

About the Item

A rare pair of very fine Louis XV Rococo marble fireplaces in a beautifully veined seravezza marble. On each, the serpentine shelf is mounted over the serpentine frieze, beautifully carved with a central rocaille cartouche and trailing flowers. The scrolled corners on the frieze meet the jambs where they elegantly taper to the base. It is extraordinarily rare to have an original pair of fireplaces of such quality. French, mid-19th century. Provenance: A fine house in Italy.
