French Limestone Mantel with Raised Stone Hearth

A plain moulded shelf, a stepped frieze, square jambs and a raised block hearth that lifts the fire off the floor to seat height. In daylight the stone is a quiet sand. Photographed at night in a dark panelled room with the fire burning low, it turns amber and takes over the whole space, which is what a hearth is actually for. Ancient Surfaces offers this reclaimed French limestone fireplace mantel for snugs, den rooms, private clubs and any room that earns its keep after dark.
