French 18th Century Regence Carved Cherry Mantel

This classic Regence mantel of cherrywood is beautifully carved in the floriate manner. The French antique piece dates back to the 18th century and offers classic countryside details.  At center, we see a dove with a cross hatched background enveloped by acanthus leaves. Further pattern work and acanthus leaves are seen sprawling across the sides and up to the apron. The only thing more beautiful than the carvings may be the deep hue of the cherrywood from the 1700s.
