Bedford Mantel - Overmantel
An English early Georgian-style piece. The frieze shelf, with its classical profiling, is a textbook example of how the Georgian-style is built on the preceding classical Palladian-style. Lamb’s tongue and egg-and-dart accent the frieze profiles. The feminine floral detailing in the swags, bluebells, and acanthus motif are perfectly offset by the masculine weight of the proportions to achieve a well balanced piece for use in the most formal settings.

Fleur De Lis Mantel
A 17th century French inspired large-scale piece. The frieze shelf is classically profiled accentuating the generously scaled frieze. Deep, substantially proportioned corbels with simple Gothic detail transition smoothly to the large frieze, with it's focal point being the gracefully sculpted Fleur De Lis motif. The Fleur De Lis is generally associated with French heraldry, gaining wide use in the 12th Century by the French King Philippe II (1180-1214), and likely earlier by his father Louis VII (1137-80). Historically, its origins can be traced back to many ancient civilizations. Examples of the Fleur de Lis can be seen four thousand years earlier in Assyrian bas-reliefs.
