A very elegant Regency pine and gesso chimneypiece decorated in the Adam style. The inverted breakfront shelf is decorated with a beaded cornice and sits above an elegant frieze decorated with opposing gryphons holding ribbons of bellflowers in their beaks, centred by urns on stands. The tablet is more naturalistic, with Venus and attendants depicted in a pastoral landscape. The slender endblocks are decorated with classical urns on stands, and rest above the gently fluted pilaster jambs.

English, c.1810.
