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. |

Notes on Custom Mantels |
|
Planed Heart Mantel When timbers are "Planed", a smooth surface is created to bring
out the rich grain of the wood. |
 |
Character Brushed Mantel
"Character Brushing" cleans off dirt and old paint with a lightly
sanded effect that creates a rich burnished look as an end result. |
 |
Rustic Mantel "Rustic" looks often come from beams with cracks, nail and
bolt holes and even axe marks, created by the original wood workers. |
 |
Planed with Rounded Edges "Rounded" edges expose end grains and create a more formal
or contemporary look. |
 |
Burnt Mantel with Planed Sides Limited Edition "Burnt" mantle stock provides unique and surprisingly
beautiful effects. |
