• Floating design: The mounting system is concealed behind the mantel.
• Wall suitability: Secure the cleat to a suitable supporting structure using fixings appropriate for your wall.

Have your fireplace installer confirm the proposed mantel position before fitting. This mantel is not a heat shield.

🪵 Solid Chestnut & Craftsmanship

Each mantel is made from solid chestnut boards with an intentionally hollow interior. This construction creates the appearance of a substantial timber mantel with less weight than a solid block of the same dimensions.

The wood is distressed by hand to create an aged appearance. Natural grain variations and individually worked surface details make every piece unique, so your mantel may differ from the photographs.

🎨 Color Options

• Castle Brown
• Dark Oak
• Black

All three colors are applied to solid chestnut. Dark Oak is a finish color name; the wood species remains chestnut.
