Antique French Limestone Mantel (M-VYJL)

Carved from limestone in France during the 18th century, this antique mantel features a unique tapered silhouette that narrows toward the base, creating a subtle downward curve that gives it a sculptural presence. Its minimalist design is balanced by soft edges and a simple molded top, allowing the natural texture and patina of the stone to take focus. Visible wear, surface marks, and gentle discoloration throughout speak to its age and authenticity, giving this slender piece an understated yet timeless character.
