Pale Limestone Mantel with Scrolling Vine Frieze

A pale, almost ivory limestone fireplace mantel with a crisply carved frieze of scrolling vines and rosettes running the full width beneath a molded shelf. The jambs are large scrolled consoles with a single volute at the top, and the surround stands on a stepped stone hearth with canted corners. Fine natural veining shows through the smooth face of the stone, and the herringbone firebox is lined in pale brick. Photographed between iron sconces, the piece reads calm and formal. Ideal for a dining room, living room or classic residential renovation.
