Louis XV Shell-Cartouche Reclaimed Limestone Mantel

An exuberant reclaimed limestone fireplace mantel in the Louis XV taste, its serpentine frieze crowned by a carved shell cartouche wreathed in acanthus and blossoms above cabriole scroll legs. The creamy stone captures French Rococo elegance in full. Reclaimed and restored by Ancient Surfaces, an antique-limestone mantel for boudoirs, formal salons and romantic château-style interiors.
