This mantel presents the profile of the Louis XV style, with a rounded soft contour. The bronze decoration is both light and opulent: light, through the delicate gilded inlays underlying the paneled motifs on the frieze and the jambs; opulent in the treatment of the five bronze rocaille ornaments.
The jambs, adorned at the bottom with rolls and gilded bronze foliage, rise up to scrolled console tops from which hang bottom up shells and winding foliage. The center of the entablature is boldly decorated with an imposing bronze of a wavy asymmetrical shell. All these elements are set against a royal marble known as Green Campan; its cool splendor in sharp contrast to the warmth of the shiny bronze. This exceptional piece is garnished with a richly carved cast iron insert and hearth surround.
The 19th century had a particular love for the Louis XV style and inspired by the original models found many ways to play with the repertoire of the style to invent new surprising creations.
The cast iron fireback is available. The floor has a slight damage, which will be restored.
