Pearl Mantels 497-60-10 Celeste Mantel Shelf for Home, 60-Inch, Dune Finish

The fireplace is often regarded as the first and foremost piece of furniture in a home, radiating warmth and hospitality. The sight of a crackling fire in an open hearth is unmatched; the flickering flames have the remarkable ability to elevate your mood and diminish the stress accumulated throughout the day in mere moments. However, for a fireplace to truly resonate as part of a home, it should evoke a sense of warmth in our hearts even when it is not lit.

For Pearl, the mantel is not merely a decorative trim or molding; it is viewed as a stunning piece of furniture that serves as the emotional nucleus of the entire room, reflecting our roots, heritage, and traditions. Furniture is strategically arranged around this focal point, cherished objects are displayed upon it, and it contributes to the overall balance and stability of the space.

Pearl Mantels offers fine-quality furniture, characterized by exquisite detail and classic designs that augment any decor. Among its offerings is the Celeste shelf, which is designed to delight. It features three distinct design options: the shelf by itself, a combination of the shelf with corbels, or the complete ensemble of the shelf topped with corbels and an arch. Handcrafted from New Zealand Pine and presented in a Dune finish, the Celeste shelf showcases an inviting blend of soft colors and natural distressing, creating a sense of warmth and comfort in any room. The hand-hewn edges and authentic distressing accentuate the wood grain's inherent beauty.

Regardless of whether your aesthetic leans towards clean, classic, or traditional styles, the Celeste shelf is flexible enough to complement your design vision. It can be displayed over the hearth or used in various settings such as the bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, den, or any space where you desire extra storage or a showcase for treasures. Its versatility knows no bounds, limited only by your imagination.

For effortless installation, the Celeste shelf includes a mitered hanger board assembly. Its dimensions are notable: a shelf length of 60 inches, a depth of 10 inches, and a base depth of 6 inches. When paired with corbels, its overall height reaches 15 inches; the corbels themselves have a height of 6 ¾ inches and a width of 6 inches. The space between the corbels measures 40 ½ inches, and the shelf has a radius of 58.635 inches, balancing style with practicality. Weighing in at 33 pounds, it is both sturdy and inviting.

When you receive your Pearl Mantel, look for the pearl inlay gracing the right side of the shelf, a mark of authenticity. This inlay is protected by a mask, allowing you to easily paint or stain around it; simply remove the mask once your project is complete. Light sanding and filling are recommended before applying paint or stain.

Additionally, the shelf is available unfinished for those who wish to customize it further. Please note that wood is considered a combustible material, so it is essential to follow heat clearance requirements. If installation is planned over a fireplace, be sure to check local building codes and adhere to the manufacturer’s guidelines for your specific fireplace insert or stove.
