Classic yet contemporary: A carved Portland stone bolection chimneypiece

Thornhill Galleries recently supplied a well carved bolection chimneypiece in Portland stone. This elegant and understated moulded fireplace is carved with oak leaf decoration throughout and features a cross banded ribbon to the centre of the frieze. Portland stone is quarried on the south coast of England and its neutral tones allow it to work with a variety of colours and furnishings. It is used here in a minimalist context - the off-white wall colouring and white travertine stone flooring help promote the art work and furniture. This English stone chimneypiece was a copy of a period original mantel piece and could be made to any size in various materials if required.
