Pearl Mantels 495-60 Auburn Mantel Shelf for Unfinished Spaces, 60

The fireplace is often regarded as the first essential piece of furniture in any home, serving as a warm and inviting centerpiece. There’s truly nothing quite like the soothing ambiance of a crackling fire flickering in an open hearth. The mesmerizing dance of the flames can uplift your spirits and alleviate the stress of the day in mere moments. However, for a fireplace to resonate with the heart of the home, it must evoke feelings of warmth and comfort even when it is unlit.

Pearl views the mantel not merely as an accessory or decorative trim; instead, it is seen as an exquisite piece of furniture that serves as the focal point of the entire room, acting as its emotional core. This mantel symbolizes our roots, heritage, and traditions. Furniture is thoughtfully arranged around it, treasured items adorn its surface, and it offers balance and stability to the entire space. Pearl Mantels showcases fine craftsmanship, stunning attention to detail, and timeless designs that can elevate any décor style.

Take, for instance, the Auburn shelf, which is designed to please with its versatility. It features three distinct design options: you can choose to install just the shelf, combine it with corbels, or opt for the full ensemble that includes the shelf, corbels, and an arch. The Auburn shelf accommodates various design preferences, whether you lean towards a clean, modern aesthetic, classic elegance, or traditional charm.

Crafted from premium Asian hardwoods and veneers, the Auburn shelf is designed to beautifully accept paint and stain, ensuring that it can harmonize with your existing interior décor. Each shelf includes a mitered hanger board assembly, making installation a breeze. Here are its dimensions: Shelf Length measures 60 inches, Depth is 10 inches, while the Bottom Base Depth is 6 inches. The overall height with corbels is 15 inches, with the corbels themselves standing at a height of 6 ¾ inches and a width of 6 inches. The distance between corbels is 40 ½ inches, with a radius of 58.635 inches, and it weighs 52 pounds.

Look closely at the elegant pearl inlay adorning the right side of the shelf; this signifies that you are in possession of an authentic Pearl Mantel. The inlay is carefully masked, allowing you to paint or stain around it easily. You can simply peel off the mask once you have completed that process. To achieve the best results, light sanding and filling are recommended prior to applying paint or stain. Additionally, the shelf is available in a finished version.

Importantly, this versatile shelf is not limited to use over a mantel; it can enhance any room in your home. When installing the shelf, remember that wood is a combustible material; therefore, it’s essential to adhere to heat clearances. If you plan to install it above a fireplace, be sure to consult local building codes and adhere to the specific manufacturer’s instructions for your fireplace insert or stove.
