Pearl Mantels Celeste Mantel Shelf 60 for Homeowners, Espresso Finish

The fireplace is often the first piece of furniture a home introduces, embodying warmth and welcome with its crackling flames. Nothing lifts the spirit or alleviates stress like the flickering firelight, which can transform a difficult day in mere moments. However, for a fireplace to truly become a cherished element of the home, it should evoke warmth and affection even when it’s not in use.

At Pearl, the mantel is not merely an ornamental trim or molding; it is regarded as a stunning piece of furniture, serving as the emotional centerpiece of the room. It symbolizes roots, heritage, and tradition, with furniture arranged around it, cherished items displayed upon it, and it bestowing balance and stability throughout the space. Pearl Mantels is celebrated for its superior furniture quality, exquisite details, and classic designs that enhance any décor.

The Celeste shelf is designed to impress, featuring three design options to choose from. This versatile shelf consists of a shelf, a pair of corbels, and an arch, allowing for various installation possibilities: you can opt to install just the shelf, combine the shelf with the corbels, or incorporate all three elements. Crafted from New Zealand Pine in a pre-distressed Espresso finish, its warm, dark coffee color, complemented by rasped edges, subtly reveals hints of copper and earthy brown tones. The hand-hewn edges and distressing only serve to highlight the wood's natural beauty.

No matter your design preference—be it clean, traditional, or classic—the Celeste shelf accommodates your style flawlessly. It finds its place over the hearth, in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, dens, or any area that could benefit from an extra touch of storage or display space. Its uses are limited only by your creativity.

For effortless installation, the shelf includes a mitered hanger board assembly. Dimensions include a 60" shelf length, a shelf depth of 10", a bottom base depth of 6", and an overall height of 15" when paired with the corbels. The dimensions of the corbels are 6 ¾" in height and 6" in width, with a 40 ½" width between them. The radius measures 58.635, and the shelf weighs 33 pounds.

To ensure authenticity, look for the pearl inlay located on the right side of the shelf, which certifies you’ve purchased a genuine Pearl Mantel. The inlay is masked for easy painting or staining around it, and you can simply remove the mask after finishing your work. Prior to applying paint or stain, light sanding and filling are recommended for the best results.

Also, there’s an option for an unfinished version of the shelf. As for safety, remember that wood is a combustible material; it’s crucial to adhere to heat clearance guidelines. If you’re planning to install the shelf over a fireplace, be sure to check local building codes and consult the manufacturer’s instructions specific to your fireplace insert or stove. Enjoy the beauty and sophistication that a Pearl Mantel can bring to your home.
