Broken Pediment Limestone Entryway with an Oculus Window

Photographed whole against black, this reclaimed limestone entryway rises to a broken scrolled pediment framing a round oculus window, with a pair of carved finials seated on the scrolls above rusticated voussoir jambs. A wrought iron gate worked in dense scrollwork fills the arched opening below. The stone carries a soft grey patina and rounded, weathered edges rather than a crisp new cut. Available to buy, this antique limestone entryway suits formal facades and grand entrance halls that want a true architectural portal with a fanlight window built into the stone itself.
