Densely Carved Limestone Mantel with Weathered Ochre Toned Stone

Photographed against black, this reclaimed limestone mantel is carved edge to edge across the frieze and legs alike with scrolling acanthus leaves and small florets, traces of warm ochre toned pigment still held in the deeper recesses of the carving. The straight, rectangular legs and consistently worked surface make this the most heavily carved piece in the collection. Available to buy, this antique limestone mantel suits living rooms and libraries that want maximum carved detail and a strongly weathered, aged surface throughout.
