Neo Renaissance walnut fireplace mantel and overmantel from 1890. It is complete with mirror, ceramic insert, with a checkered pattern of green salamanders and dark ochre squares, and matching colored tiles on the hearth and also the iron fire curtain. The warm colored walnut wood is beautifully carved with classical geometrical shapes and patterns.

The salamander represents those who pass through the fires of worldly passion without stain. Therefore, it stands for loyalty, impartiality, courage and the faithful. The salamander is also used to symbolize the flames which it passes through and so is a symbol of fire, temptation, and burning desire.
