This exceptional Neo-Renaissance style antique fireplace in walnut was made in the late 19th century. The jambs are carved with finely represented Satyrs in very high relief. Their hair is covered in vine leaves and they stand out atop the heads of oxen from which hang garlands of fruits.
The entablature is adorned in the middle with a cabochon of sea green marble, framed by two winged chimera.
The satyrs decorating both jambs of this fireplace are made after the monumental fireplace from the Château de Villeroy in Mennecy and now exhibited in the Louvre Museum. This fireplace was made by Mathieu Jacquet circa 1600 for the chateau built by Nicolas de Neufville, lord of Villeroy (1542-1617). It was bought by Alexandre Lenoir for the Musée des Monuments français in 1801/1802.
This fireplace is sold without any fireplace insert or marble floor.
