Wonderful Louis XIII style antique countryside fireplace

This 17th-century Louis XIII-style limestone fireplace was crafted from stone quarried in Combles-en-Barrois, Meuse (Eastern France)— quarries that no longer exist.
 

Its slender monolithic jambs create a generously sized hearth, typical of the period when fireplaces served both for cooking and heating large rooms. The keystone lintel is also monolithic, emphasizing its solid, timeless construction.

Salvaged from an antique farmhouse in Bar-le-Duc, this fireplace combines rustic charm with simple elegance. Its understated design will seamlessly enhance an authentic living space while bringing warmth and character to your home.
