About the Item
This authentic 19th century Napoleon III style fireplace surround is crafted from the highly sought-after black Noir Cihigue marble from the Pyrénées Atlantiques. A rare small chimney piece, it offers the perfect balance between bold presence and refined, architectural elegance.
The marble presents a deep charcoal-black ground animated by crisp white veining that cuts across the surface like fine calligraphy. In softer light the stone reads almost ink-black and velvety, while daylight reveals subtle grey undertones and the natural movement of the veining. The polished surface gently reflects the light of the room, creating a sophisticated glow around the fire opening and giving the whole space a rich, intimate ambiance.
Classic Napoleon III corbel supports, clean lines and well-proportioned uprights lend the mantel a timeless silhouette. Its scale makes it ideal for both city apartments and character townhouses, where you want a strong focal point without overwhelming the room.
This antique marble fireplace surround combines beautifully with:
- Contemporary art and sculptural lighting, where the graphic white veining becomes a natural partner for bold artworks.
- Modern wood flooring in oak, walnut or smoked tones, adding warmth and contrast to the cool black marble.
- Minimalist interiors with concrete or stone-style floors, bringing in a refined historic French touch.
Cosy, timeless living spaces layered with textiles, books and vintage pieces, where the fireplace anchors the room with authentic character.
An original French architectural element, this Napoleon III mantel has been professionally restored, including the veining in the tablet, and is ready for installation. Wear and patina are consistent with age and careful use, preserving its historic soul while ensuring structural integrity.
A rare opportunity for designers, collectors and homeowners seeking a small, luxurious black marble fireplace that effortlessly bridges 19th-century French elegance and contemporary interior design.
