Pearl Mantels 520-48 Berkley Fireplace Mantel for 48-Inch Users, White

The fireplace stands as the first piece of furniture in any home, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. There’s truly nothing quite like the charm of a crackling fire in an open hearth, where the mesmerizing dance of flames can elevate one's spirits and alleviate the stress of the day in just moments. However, to resonate as a genuine part of the home, a fireplace must touch our hearts even in the absence of fire.

For Pearl, the mantel is not just a decorative trim or molding; it is an exquisite piece of furniture that serves as the emotional focal point of the entire room. This striking feature symbolizes roots, heritage, and cherished traditions. Furniture is often arranged around it, treasures are proudly displayed on its surface, and it contributes balance and stability to the overall space. Pearl Mantels exemplifies fine furniture craftsmanship, offering stunning details and timeless designs that will enhance any decor style.

The Berkley model, with its classic styling, is designed to harmoniously blend into your room. Constructed from medium density fiberboard (MDF), this mantel boasts the durability and versatility characteristic of composite woods, commonly employed in furniture, cabinetry, shelving, and decorative trims. The mantel is shipped in three manageable pieces: two legs and one header. Assembly is straightforward as the legs attach seamlessly to the header using nuts and bolts. A mitered hanger board assembly is included to simplify installation, and a three-piece mitered scribe molding set ensures that any gaps post-installation are nicely concealed.

With a 1.5-inch projection from the wall, the Berkley mantel creates a generous pocket behind it, allowing you to fit your choice of tile, stone, marble, or other non-combustible materials. Specific dimensions include an interior width of 48 inches, an interior height of 42 inches, and an overall height of 52 inches. The distance from the outer edge of one leg to the other at the base measures 58 inches, with the shelf extending to a length of 62 inches and a depth of 8 inches. Weighing in at 50 pounds, this mantel combines substantial presence with ease of installation.

Customers can identify an authentic Pearl Mantel by looking for the elegant pearl inlay on the right-hand side of the shelf. The mantel is offered in a paint-grade finish: it arrives painted white and is ready to hang, or you may opt to sand, prime, and select your preferred color to match your design vision.
