Finished Fireplace Mantels
Most of our work is made-to-order; however, on occasion we get a chance to finish a few mantles here and there on our personal favorite beams. As much as we'd like to stock pre-finished fireplace mantels, it seems that once they hit this page, it's only a couple of weeks and they're sold. If you find something to your liking on this page, we probably have something similar in raw format -- even in different sizes.

Tree-like; Sawn Mantel 5ft -- AVAILABLE Approx. 5.75in x 7.5in or so x 60in long This 5FT piece just had a great natural, tree-like face with a circle sawn top and bottom. Like all of our wood, this is another reclaimed piece. It happens to be an old red oak "sleeper" beam (think floor joist) from a barn in Wisconsin. | |

Dark Stained Red Elm Mantel--SOLD Approx. 6in x 7in x 74.25in long We're not real fond of staining, but this particular technique works pretty well. We use "asphaltum," which is basically tar that is thinned with mineral spirits. We then apply a couple coats of spray poly. The use of asphatum dates back thousands of yea | |

Deep Cracked White Oak Mantel --SOLD Approx. 5-6in Thick x 9in x 65in long This piece came from a sill beam from an old granary in Minnesota. The sill beams get the most exposure to water and tend to rot a bit over 100 years. But, the result is a pretty stunning look. It’s worked it up as a 5.5FT mantel, but priced it as 4.5FT | |

Red Oak Chopping Block Mantel--SOLD Approx. 5.75in x 10in x 60in long We see a lot of different pieces come through the shop -- each with a story to tell.

Hand Hewn Oak w/ Peg Hole--SOLD Approx. 5.75in x 9in x 58.25in long This mantel comes from an old log cabin timber from Waterloo, Illinois. While we like to keep things all original, sometimes you do what you have to do. The front edge has been newly hand hewn. | |

White Oak Mantel with 5 Mortise Holes -- SOLD Approx. 6in x 6in x 71in long This beam was orginally a sill plate or similar the 5 holes are original and most likely had joists placed into them. We've seen mortise-and-tennon studs fairly regularly, but it's a a far cry from today's nailed in studs. This was real craftsmanship. | |
