Large 1920s mahogany mantel with recessed frieze

An imposing fire surround in flame and fiddle back mahogany with pillasters topped by hand carved acanthus leaf capitols. Above the capitols, the pillasters continue up and across the top of the piece framing a beautiful, concavely recessed frieze with large flame mahogany panels.

The fireplace opening is stepped forward beneath the frieze creating an ample central shelf which is edged with ebonised stringing. The fireplace opening has a finely moulded edge with mitred fiddleback pattern around it and a delicate rib of half-round beading.

The generous 7inch rebate will accomodate the vast majority of fireplace inserts and would particularly suit one such as the Stanshall fireplace insert.
