Ink and watercolour drawing of a white statuary and Sienna marble break fronted chimney-piece. The centre tablet is carved with an elliptical covered urn with foliate feet. The urn's bird head handles hold festoons from ribbon bows to either side. This design is taken from a black basalt ink well found at Herculaneum. Each corner blocking is carved with an urn with festoons draping from the handles. The upper frieze panel is of Sienna marble while the lower frieze section is fluted. Both pilasters are of white statuary marble inlaid with Sienna borders intersected by an octofoil. There is a simple moulded cornice shelf. Pencil inscription: '£20'. Watermark: Hunting horn and letter K. Design of the centre tablet is identical to 3 C 34/3/47 and C 34/3/48. The centre tablet is similar in design to 3 C 34/3/51.
