About this asset

This French classic fireplace mantel Revit family provides an elegant traditional surround featuring a serpentine arched lintel with detailed mouldings. Modelled with classic French proportions, this mantelpiece surround showcases a distinctive curvilinear arch with a central scalloped cartouche ornament along the lintel. Slender, profiled console jambs feature subtle S-curve sweeps that terminate onto substantial rectangular plinth blocks at the base. A delicately profiled top shelf cornice caps the assembly, providing a finished horizontal display surface. Rendered here in neutral grey shading, the surround geometry represents carved limestone, cast stone, or painted wood construction, making it an architectural focal piece for traditional interior elevations.

The download is a 461 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this native RFA component directly into your Revit project to furnish architectural hearth details. Position the family aligned against chimney breast walls or architectural chases in plan and elevation. Material parameters can be customized via the family properties to assign native plaster, marble, or carved limestone textures, aligning line weights and shaded presentation styles cleanly with internal construction drawings and orthographic elevation documentation.

Ideal for residential living rooms, formal dining areas, primary bedroom suites, and luxury boutique hotel lobbies, this piece suits classic Haussmannian, neoclassical, and transitional French country aesthetics. Specifiers searching for traditional chimneypieces, carved hearth surrounds, bolection fireplace frames, and French country mantels can integrate this model alongside wainscoting, parquetry flooring, and wall mouldings during schematic design through detailed design stages.
