Waldorf Astoria Louis XV Carved Marble Mantel

$12,800.00

SKU: WAN251422 Categories: , , ,

This mantel is carved from striking marble which features golden ochre, cream, rose pink, burgundy and deeper oxblood. The design epitomizes the emerging aesthetics of the Louis XV period, which was characterized by curved forms versus the more formal, box like furniture preceding Louis XIV. This mantel features a beautifully carved serpentine apron highlighted by a unique scrolled center design surrounding a heart. The lightly carved jambs are slightly angled outward, and the curved shelf is finished with a soft Ogee edge. The mantel is completed with a matching hearthstone of the same striking marble.

This mantel was imported from Europe to decorate the Waldorf Astoria Hotel NYC which opened on Park Avenue October 1, 1931. Original to suite H on the 17th floor, a Waldorf Astoria authenticity card is included with your purchase.

Pictured still installed at the Waldorf Astoria, kindly request the reclaimed condition before purchasing. Located at our Scranton Warehouse, please allow 3-4 weeks for processing.
