Limestone Fireplace Mantel

A new limestone fireplace mantel in a classical manner, with a bold scrolling keystone at the center of the header, Ionic scrolls on the supporting pillars and a heavy tiered shelf above. The stone is pale oatmeal, sun-bleached bone and soft buff in color. The surface is honed smooth and the edges are gently rounded, with faint veining that shows in good light.

It measures 70 1/4 inches wide and 63 1/4 inches high, with an opening 46 3/4 inches wide and 42 1/2 inches high; ask us for the shelf depth. This is new stone, selected from the European workshop that supplies our new French mantels, and the design can be made to a custom opening. The mantel ships in sections with a drawing for the mason.

A mantel of this profile suits a coastal villa, a formal dining hall, a primary suite, or a gallery room where it offsets quieter art; Venetian plaster and white oak floors suit the stone, as do hand-rubbed brass and velvet. The limestone fireplace mantel is in our showroom in Marina Del Rey; call for an appointment, or we will send photographs and a delivered price.
