Awesome LEGO Arch

I recently won some LEGO parts in an EBAY auction that included some
light pink and light green pieces (I believe they are parts of a
Bellville set).  Among the lot was (IMHO) the most interesting
architectural element LEGO ever produced.  It is a white 2x6x5 LEGO arch
piece that has attached round columns on either side, with a 4x wide
arch opening at the top that has above it what looks like "Victorian
Gingerbread" (a North American reference to late 1800's houses that have
very ornate and intricate cutout wood trim in gables, porch railings,
overhangs, and architectural embellishments).  The design above the arch
looks like two hearts on either side, with what looks like a triangle in
the middle.  These designs are cut out of the arch.  On either side of
the arch there is a curved loop at the top, also of this cut out
design.  The arch is 1x wide at the bottom, but 2x wide at the top.  I
really like this piece, and I think it is one of the most intricate LEGO
pieces I have ever seen.

So what set(s) did this piece come in?  And is it only available in
white?

Again this is an awesome arch!
