Hello I am Melissa from NorthlineExpress here with a mantle that is Perfect for smaller hearth areas and a great alternative to avoid covering up stone work and fireplace brick with a full mantel or mantel surround, the 60″ Shenandoah Mantel Shelf by Pearl Mantels. This mantle is well known for its endless design possibilities and is guaranteed to make the hearth area the focal point of your home! It was even featured on HGTV’s® House Hunters Renovation!!!

If your room construction or interior decor does not allow space for a full surround fireplace mantel, a Mantel Shelf is a great accessory to add style and flair to fireplace settings. The Shenandoah Mantel Shelf will create a rustic atmosphere for any room with hand hewn edges and splits that enhance the beauty of the natural wood grain. The Shenandoah Mantel Shelf is finished with a distressed medium oak finish that will complement any home’s interior and add a touch of authenticity to hearth areas.

The Shenandoah Mantel Shelf is guaranteed to be the focal point of any room whether you choose to keep it bare and traditional or dress it up with dramatic accents such as candelabras, flower vases and portraits, or decorative, unique shaped mirrors. Holiday wreaths, garland and other holiday accents will also look great and add a world or seasonal atmosphere when placed on top or draped from the mantel shelf.

The mantle is constructed of pine with hand hewn edges and splits and had a distressed medium oak finish. The mantle can be installed with or without the corbels depending on the look that you are going for; as you can see here we chose to install the mantle without the corbels to achieve the rustic beam look. The mantel has a top and bottom shelf length of 60” and a depth of 9”. The width between the corbels (if used ) is 35”. Each corbel has a width of 6 ½” and a height of 5 ½”. The height of the mantel without the corbels would be 5” and 10 ½” with the corbels installed.

Jim Pearl, The founder of Pearl Mantle, has been in the furniture industry for over 50 years but noticed that fireplaces are often more of the homes main focal point. Jim realized that the mantel was not only the focal point of the room, but also the emotional core. It represents roots, heritage and tradition. Each pearl mantle is lovingly branded with a Pearl inlay—its guarantee of authenticity.

Each mantel will also ship with a Pearl Certificate of Authenticity. The certificate is your assurance that you are receiving a genuine, fine furniture quality product from Pearl Mantels that will enhance any room in your home.
