Antique French Faux Wooden Fireplace Mantel in Painted Green "Marble"

Faux Real: A Painted French Fireplace in Marbled Green
We’ll let you in on a little secret: not all fireplaces were born to burn. Some, like this charming 19th-century French piece, were made purely for the drama. Painted in swirls of soft olive green "marble" with chestnut-red accents, it’s a wooden mantel with all the elegance and none of the soot.

No Chimney? No Problem
If your home came without a fireplace (how dare it), this beauty is your shortcut to architectural gravitas. Simply lean it against a wall, pop in some candles, books, or a piece of modern art, et voilà—instant ambiance.

Faux mantels like these were often used in rooms that wanted the grandeur without the grit—bedrooms, salons, or even shop interiors. Today, they’re perfect for bringing structure and soul to a space that’s otherwise a bit too well-behaved.

Structurally sound and standing proud, this faux mantel has aged with grace. The original green marble-effect paint is beautifully patinated—worn in all the right places. Fully treated for woodworm, of course—because charm is lovely, but pests are not invited.

A clever little detail: a small notch has been cut out at the base of the mantel, so it slides effortlessly over your skirting board. Easy peasy!
