Antique Wood Mantels

Antique Wood Mantels

Antique & Reclaimed wood has a much lower moisture content so it is more solid and stable for a mantle which is possibly subjected to heated fireplaces which can cause wood which is less dry, to shrink. Our mantels are somewhat custom made to your specifications as shown below.

Custom mantels require custom pricing.
