Pearl Mantels 48 W x 40 H Crisp White Mantel Surround

There's nothing quite as inviting as the warmth of a crackling fire in an open fireplace. The flickering flames have the remarkable ability to lift your spirits and wash away the stress of an exhausting day within minutes. However, for a fireplace to truly feel like a part of the home, it must evoke warmth in our hearts, even when it is unlit. Pearl sees the mantel not merely as decorative trim or molding but as an exquisite piece of furniture that serves as the emotional focal point of the room. This mantel embodies roots, heritage, and tradition.

Surrounding the mantel, furniture is thoughtfully arranged, and cherished treasures are lovingly displayed, contributing to the overall balance and stability of the space. Pearl Mantels is known for its high-quality craftsmanship, stunning details, and timeless designs that complement any decor. Their simplicity is elegance personified, making them suitable for any room.

Constructed from Grade A medium density fiberboard, commonly referred to as MDF, these mantels are a sturdy yet versatile option for various decorative applications. The mantel comes in three pieces: two legs and one header, all designed for easy assembly. The legs attach seamlessly to the header using nuts and bolts, and an included mitered hanger board simplifies installation. To achieve a polished finish and conceal any gaps, a three-piece mitered scribe molding set is also part of the package.

With a projection of 1.5 inches off the wall, this mantel creates a convenient pocket behind it, perfect for accommodating materials such as tile, stone, or marble. The dimensions include an interior width of 48 inches and an interior height of 40 inches. Additionally, the width from the outside leg to the outside leg at the base measures 58 inches, while the shelf length spans 65 inches with a depth of 7 inches. The overall height of the mantel is 51 inches, and it weighs 46 pounds.

To verify authenticity, look for the pearl inlay adorning the right side of the shelf, which symbolizes that you have chosen a genuine Pearl Mantel. It comes pre-painted in white and is ready for installation. Assembly is straightforward, requiring you to attach the legs to the header and mount it on the provided mitered hanger rail.

For a complete look, the included three-piece scribe molding set enhances the aesthetic. The 1.5-inch projection at the back facilitates easy installation over non-combustible materials like marble or slate. Scribe attachments can be secured around the mantel opening to effectively hide any gaps.

All necessary assembly hardware is provided; however, mounting hardware for the hanger rail is not included as it should be selected based on your specific mounting surface—brick, for instance, requires different hardware than drywall.

It is important to note that MDF is classified as a combustible material, so adherence to heat clearances is crucial. If you plan to install the mantel over a fireplace, be sure to consult your local building codes and carefully review the manufacturer's instructions for your specific fireplace insert or stove.
