An imposing and beautifully carved Louis XV chimneypiece in a rich hued Rouge Royale marble with its original, richly detailed cast iron insert. The serpentine shelf rests over the frieze of the same form, which is dramatically carved with an acanthine cartouche and flanked by the most beautifully carved endblocks echoing the same foliate motif. These are mounted over the angled, console jambs which are raised on plain footblocks. The interior is framed by the beautifully ornate cast iron insert, original to the fireplace.

French, mid-19th century.
