French 19th Century Set of 3 Hand-carved Marble Corbels

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 38 ¼” H x 8” W x 6 ½” D

French 19th century–or earlier–ensemble of three hand-carved stone corbels. They are substantial pieces, likely used as decorative supports or architectural elements around a fireplace or softening the geometry of a roofline. It is truly extraordinary how the artist has decorated these elongated panels with naturalistic floral and leaf designs–which include roses, lilies, sunflowers, and ivy–rendered in tactile softness that belies the density of the stone. Outside of an architectural function, the grouping could be displayed in one’s home like stela from the ancient world: sculptural markers to guide the way or commemorate a significant event. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition. Sold as a set of three.
