About the Item

When the Hearth Becomes an Unmatched Work of Art. This authentic 16th century French antique fireplace surround, masterfully carved in limestone, is a rare and historically rich piece. Preserved entirely “dans son jus,” it retains its original centuries-old layers of paint, offering an unparalleled patina that speaks of its age and provenance. Once gracing a French castle, the mantel is adorned with a finely sculpted cap of the king’s jester at the centre, a charming and symbolic detail representing wit and courtly tradition in French history. Its noble proportions and original condition make it a one-of-a-kind statement for any interior, from grand restoration projects to contemporary spaces seeking authentic character. Wear is consistent with centuries of use, adding to its authenticity and charm. A unique opportunity to own a genuine fragment of France’s cultural heritage.
