About the Item

Sculpted in the 19th century, this one-of-a-kind Italian marble fireplace surround embodies the quiet power of the bolection profile: a generous, convex moulding that frames the fire with architectural grace. The marble is unusually animated—soft sandy beige and golden ochre are laced with rose, plum and burgundy ribbons, with lighter cream inclusions that read almost like fossil tracery. The surface retains an authentic, naturally developed satin patina that deepens the color and confirms its age. The simplicity of the bolection line makes this mantel profoundly versatile. It anchors classic rooms with paneling and parquet just as confidently as it punctuates contemporary spaces. Picture it with a deep green velvet sofa or burgundy leather accents, brushed bronze lighting and a curated selection of modern art—the marble’s warmth ties everything together for a refined, worldly atmosphere. Style & design details: - Authentic 19th-century bolection profile with continuous convex moulding Italian marble in ochre/beige base with rose, burgundy and plum veining; cream mineral inclusions - Original patina in excellent condition; crisp edges and elegant returns Timeless silhouette suited to eclectic luxury interiors and modern architectural décor Condition: - Excellent overall condition consistent with age and careful preservation.
