Stock No.15958
A fine and grand neoclassical chimneypiece in statuary marble with Siena marble inlay. The boldly carved breakfront shelf sits above a high relief egg and dart undershelf and a finely fluted frieze inlaid with Siena marble. This is mounted with a beautifully carved tablet depicting putti feeding a goat within a pastoral landscape. This symbolises abundance. The solitary putto endblocks rest on three-quarter pilasters with inlaid Siena volutes over plain jambs.
English, c.1760 with nineteenth-century restorations.
