About the Item

A large and elegant -Scottish (Edinburgh’s New Town) 19th Century Georgian carved pine and lime wood fireplace surround. A break front top shelf with a carved repeating rope cornice moulding with a central joining knot, a central tablet displaying a pair of high relief carved lime griffin’s facing inwards towards an urn on a sicole, two rams heads with hoofs link the griffins by a chained swag. (The griffin is a Greek mythological creature that’s half lion, half eagle, symbolising strength and vision, griffins in architecture where renowned keepers or guardians, equally in representation, is the ram- the protector of the flock). The central tablet is -in turn flanked by high relief swags of bell flowers with tied ribbons, the corner capitols are adorned with tall urns surmounted with closed acorn bud finials. The fireplace opening has a surrounding of carved egg & dart architrave . The tall elegant jambs that are so typical of Georgian chimney pieces each have a framed border with trailing silk drapes with further folate below, all resting on moulded foot block work. The internal metal insert frame that’s graphite pasted with three half spheres to the frieze is later in period. It’s rare to be able to offer this full carved lime and pine chimney piece of this colour and timber quality- so often these types of pieces have been heavily painted. Edinburgh 1830c Fire opening size: With metal insert: 1115mm wide x 1030mm high. With metal insert removed: 1395mm wide x 1165mm high. Overall base width: 1715mm Shown with a polished steel fire grate and fire tools, both available separately on our 1st dibs listings. The granite curling stones are sadly not for sale.
