Jean-Claude Marchionni Stone Sculptor
A pale limestone fireplace seen at an angle: a rounded shelf over a curved frieze carved with fluted and geometric panels, a stylized geometric motif in each corner, tapered jambs with recessed panels and beaded scrolls, and a dark green veined marble slip framing a mesh fire screen.

Fireplace

Louis XVI Fireplace, NYC

Limestone · 1999 · Private residence, New York, NY

A Louis XVI profile reworked in a contemporary vocabulary — the frieze runs in fluted and geometric panels toward a stylized geometric motif in each corner of the frieze, an abstract composition of mechanical and spatial forms. A green veined marble slip lines the opening.
