The script carvings on the side of the legs are true beauty and show the antique history of this Old Italian marble fireplace mantle. On one side of the return is a cavity carved molding and in the middle is a bronze or brass plated draft to let in the air and suck out some as well. Under the mantle you can place a step raised hearth too. You can place an electric, gas or wood burning fireplace inside the marble mantels or add an over mantle if you desire.
