Carved Fireplace Mantel Insert With Deer
This insert is designed to fit over the fireplace, under the shelf in a custom-built fireplace mantle. It is made of redwood, carved and lacquered in its natural color. The carving features a group of deer grazing outside a cabin in a mountain setting. The insert is 48" long by 7" 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 redwood, it could be done in 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 China cabinet Project5.0We ordered a cabinet from D&S for our dining room. We were very specific with the measurements and style as it had to match our buffet, table and chairs. We were thrilled with the finished product! It far exceeded our expectations. Throughout the process the communication and professionalism were exceptional. We would definitely order from D&S again, they're amazing!

For Box bench with top opening lid Project4.7My first interaction with Steve was pleasant. He immediately sent over a CAD according to my specifications and photos, which allowed us to have a solid talking starting point in our conversation. For each iteration, Steve promptly sent over more renderings and really allowed me to customize the banquette to my liking. He really knows his material and craft (which is good because I had no idea) and the final product was truly amazing. He finished the project in about two weeks, much earlier than I expected.
Thanks Steve, my banquette goes perfectly in my new room!
