This curved Louis XVI–style fireplace was crafted in demi-statuaire marble, a white material lightly veined with grey. The mantel shelf features a softened profile and sober lines that follow the overall curve of the façade. The entablature is enhanced with a beaded frieze forming a regular band and framing a central carved decoration.
The structure adopts a slightly curved façade, characteristic of late Louis XVI models. The frieze is long and rectilinear, punctuated by a band of linked leaves carved in low relief. The curved jambs rest on simple block bases and present an elegant, elongated silhouette.
The fireplace is adorned with carved decoration distributed across several areas. At the centre of the frieze is a large motif composed of a central knot with foliage and trailing ribbons. Long, ribbed leaves unfold horizontally on each side, following the length of the façade. A row of beads frames the whole at both the top and bottom. The blocks above the jambs each display a square floral motif, carved in relief, with radiating petals around a small central medallion. The jambs are decorated with large overlapping acanthus leaves that follow the curved profile and extend the ornamentation vertically.
The cast iron interior is present and features a black surface decorated with repeating relief motifs. The side panels show a series of slightly sinuous vertical ribs, while the corners are enriched with fine volutes.
This fireplace is sold with its original cast iron insert and with its marble floor, which is broken but will be restored in our workshop.
