Its the first piece of furniture in any home. There's nothing as warm and welcoming as a crackling fire in an open fireplace. The dancing flames can lift your spirits and melt away the most stressful day in a matter of minutes. But to truly be part of the home, a fireplace must warm our hearts even when there is no fire in the grate. Pearl does not treat the mantel as trim or molding but as a beautiful piece of furniture that is the focal point of the entire room, the emotional core. It represents roots, heritage and tradition. Furniture is arranged around it, precious treasures are displayed on it, and it provides balance and stability to the entire room. Pearl Mantels features fine furniture quality, stunning details and classic designs that will enhance any decor. The Homestead mantel shelf is a beautiful transitional design that features elegant cove molding. The ample ten inch shelf depth allows plenty of display room. Hand crafted from Asian hardwoods and veneers that take paint and stain beautifully. Mitered hanger board assembly included for easy installation. Top Shelf Length: 72" Bottom Base Length: 62" Top Shelf Depth: 10" Bottom Base Depth: 4 5/8" Overall Height: 5" Weight 34 pounds. Look for the pearl inlay that graces the right hand side of the shelf as proof that you have received an authentic Pearl Mantel. Your inlay is masked so that you may easily paint or stain around it. Simply remove the mask when done. Light sanding and filling is recommended before paint or stain is applied. Also available finished.
