Fireplace in brèche violette marble, made in the 19th century in the Louis XV style. It features a curved panel adorned at its center with a sculpted shell in relief, framed by soft moldings that follow the curve of the lintel. This ornamentation is characteristic of the rocaille aesthetic typical of the style. The curved jambs are decorated with sculpted scrolls and oval medallions in a symmetrical design. Their rounded profile extends to the floor with a slight projection at the base. The molded and overhanging top of the fireplace closely follows the line of the panel, enhancing the overall movement of the piece. The marble used is brèche violette, recognizable by its irregular fragments blending deep violet, white, beige, and grey tones. Highly prized in the 19th century for its rich color palette, this stone gives the fireplace a lively and animated appearance.
This fireplace is sold without any fireplace insert nor marble floor but could be made to order (please ask for marble availability).
