New York dealers in reclaimed antique limestone mantels. We salvage, conserve and sell French and Mediterranean fireplace mantels, carved chimneypieces and stone surrounds. Every piece is an original, sold once, and crated and shipped worldwide.
Authenticity cannot
be reproduced.
Every Ancient Surfaces limestone mantel carries the marks of its past. Softened edges, friezes carved by hand, fossils held in the stone, and a patina that took two centuries of firelight to settle. No quarry sells that, and no reproduction has ever copied it. Each piece below is a single original, offered for sale once.
A selection of singular limestone mantels.
Collected for their history.
Chosen for their presence.
Verified provenance
Every limestone mantel we sell comes with clear notes on origin, period, condition and the character of the stone itself.
No two mantels alike
Each reclaimed limestone fireplace mantel is singular, so once a piece is sold it is gone. The carving, the fossils, the wear and the dimensions belong to that mantel alone.
Worldwide crating and delivery
Every mantel is crated by specialist stone handlers and shipped worldwide, with white glove delivery and installation available on request.
