Elegant Louis XVI style fireplace surround in grey veined pink marble and gilded bronze dating from the second half of the 19th century.

It is decorated with chiseled and gilded bronze in the shapes of quivers, torches, laurel crowns, and cornucopias.

A pair of three-armed candelabras surround this magnificent clock signed Raingo et frères. 

 The Raingo Frères house was founded in 1823, and included four of Zacharie's sons, Adolphe Hubert Joseph, Charles François Victor, Denis Lucien Alphonse and Dorsant Emile Joseph, originally from Mons in Belgium, who settled in Paris in 1830.

Their productions were sold throughout the world; they were present at the Universal Exhibitions in Paris in 1867, 1878 and 1889 and won a gold medal.

The Emperor and Empress Eugenie placed sumptuous orders which are exhibited at the Louvre.
