Small French Carved Marble Mantel Center & Side Scroll Motif

About the Item

The craftsman artist who created this mantel came up with something out of the ordinary. This is a very unique pompadour style marble fireplace mantel consisting of light gray Carrara marble surrounding inlaid burgundy marble with white and gray veining. Scrolled patterns face each other to form hearts, adorning the top of the angled returns that blend seamlessly with the face of the mantel. That same scrolled carving appears again at the center of the serpentine apron, and those curves are echoed with a distinct curved pattern at the firebox surround. The scale of the mantel is very small, with the overhanging shelf measuring only 47-½ inches - the perfect piece to elevate a more intimate room or apartment. This mantel was reclaimed from the prestigious apartment house located at 40 East 66th Street NYC. The entire piece is in very good condition with wear consistent with its age. Please note, this item is located in one of our NYC locations.

Louis XV Hand Carved French Marble Mantel Rouge Royale
Located in New York, NY
Rich oxblood with white, gray and eggplant veining, this marble mantel was imported from Europe by Danny Alessandro & Edwin Jackson Mantel Company and carved out of rouge royale - a marble characterized by the presence of white calcite veins. In his Dictionary of Trade and Industry, Blanqui described this marble as, "This marble with a red background, mixed with white, and sometimes blue, is extracted in the town of Franchimont, near Philippeville, in the province of Namur. In all the Belgium marbles it is the one that was most frequently used in the decoration of monuments : in the palace of Versailles, the Louvre, Palais Royal, and in many other public and private buildings." This piece epitomizes the emerging design aesthetics of the Louis XV period characterized by curved forms, lightness, and comfort. True to its time period, minimal lines highlight the panels on the vertical supports as well as across the serpentine apron, which features a carved shell with scrolls and leaves at the center. One feature to note: The side panels have round bronze vent covers...
