{"product_id":"grand-victorian-carrara-marble-fireplace-corinthian-capitals","title":"Grand Victorian Carrara Marble Fireplace Mantel: Corinthian Capitals","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis is a grand Carrara marble fireplace mantel in the High Victorian tradition 2000mm wide, 1230mm tall, with a pointed arch opening framed by two pilasters topped with fully carved Corinthian-style capitals. Each capital is densely worked with acanthus leaves, floral rosettes and scrolling foliage the kind of carving that takes a skilled mason days to complete on a single capital alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eRunning along the frieze and arch surround is a continuous band of repeating decorative motifs — a detail that separates this piece from simpler Victorian mantels and places it firmly in the tradition of the grand Victorian drawing room. The recessed panels on each jamb are bordered with their own ornate carved edging, maintaining the carving density across the entire face of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe stone is Carrara marble — quarried in the Apuan Alps in Tuscany, the same stone Michelangelo used for the David. Its bright white base and fine grey veining provide the ideal backdrop for carving of this complexity — the white reads clearly against the shadowed depths of the carved detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAt 2000mm wide this is a large-format mantel suited to substantial fireplace openings in formal living rooms, drawing rooms, dining rooms, and heritage properties where the fireplace is the room's primary architectural feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFor a detailed guide on the individual components of a Victorian marble fireplace, read our \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/www.elsahomeandbeauty.com.au\/blogs\/marble-blogs-and-news\/understanding-the-structure-of-a-victorian-marble-fireplace-mantel\"\u003eguide to the structure of a Victorian marble fireplace mantel.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSolid Carrara marble throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e2000mm wide x 1230mm tall x 350mm deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePointed arch opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCorinthian-style capitals with acanthus leaf and floral carving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eRepeating decorative banding along arch and frieze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOrnate bordered recessed panels on each jamb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCustom sizing available on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsa Home And Beauty","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44851182534965,"sku":null,"price":13315.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/3673\/8869\/products\/carrara-marble-victorian-fireplace-mantle-895886.jpg?v=1681220283","url":"https:\/\/www.elsahomeandbeauty.com.au\/ja\/products\/grand-victorian-carrara-marble-fireplace-corinthian-capitals","provider":"Elsa Home And Beauty","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
