This insert is designed to fit over the fireplace, under the shelf in a custom-built fireplace mantle. It is made of fir, carved, glazed with a brown glaze and lacquered. The carving features a wolf howling at the moon. The insert is 48" long by 6.75" wide by 1.25" thick. This would fit into a country-themed, or log-cabin type decor. The mantle is custom designed and the elements can all be changed, including the animals and scenery. We can also do this in a variety of woods. In addition to fir, it could be done in redwood, walnut, maple, hickory, pine, aspen, or other woods. We would recommend against oak as the strong grain of the oak tends to overpower the carving.

For Table ProjectI am very happy with the finished project. I was also very happy with the overall experience of working with Steven and Drew. They were professional, asked important questions, gave their own input and really listened to what I wanted as well as doing their own research to make sure we were all on the same page. The table came out exactly as I hoped it would. We are already considering using D&S Artistic Woodworking for another project that is how happy we are with their work. I can easily recommend others to enlist their expertise.
