Objects from the reigns of Louis XV and Louis XVI are characterised by stylistic elements such as centred clams or two rosettes, straight or rolling columns (either flush or channelled), and occasionally decoration with bronze ornaments. Whereas the style of Napoleon III is opulent, that of the era of Louis Philippe is much simpler. Wide top mirrors, usually with stucco frames, painted or gold plated, complete this style.
Marble Fireplaces
All fireplaces are originals from the following periods: Louis XV, Louis XVI, Directoire, French Empire-style, Restoration period, Louis-Philippe, Napoleon III, with some Art Nouveau and Art deco. These types of marble are mostly unavailable nowadays, and their patina is a relic of a long-gone era. All hearths are in a very good 'rescue state'. Country of origin is France.
