Rustic Mantel With Hand Hewn Character

$680

This rustic mantel has lots of character on it. It has a hand hewn face bordered by lighter curves where rotten sapwood was removed. The face is accented with lots of blackened nail holes and a round peg. The top has a filled mortise pocket and a nice curve toward the back. The bottom side has 2 filled mortise pockets and a large crack. The crack is stable but we drove a bolt through the mantel to prevent any more changes. This old beam came from a old barn near SW Wisconsin. It dates back to the late 1800s when that area was being settled. We can cut this beam down and reduce the price — less $10/in, up to $115. Size: 71.5in Long x 8.25in Tall x 8.25in Deep Name: Green Stamps

We are a small mom-and-pop shop that works hands-on to craft tables, mantels, and countertops. We feel so very fortunate to reclaim old wood from the fading American landscape and to create wonderful pieces that can last generations. It is indeed a blessing. We work together with exceptionally talented blacksmiths who add true, hand-hammered ironwork to some already fantastic, well-crafted reclaimed wood pieces.
Farm Tables
Our artistry comes alive when we create farm tables, harvest tables, trestle tables, and even industrial base tables. This old reclaimed wood lends itself wonderfully to truly touchable beauty. With our tables, you just can’t help but touch 'em and run your hand across 'em.
Wood Countertops
As a returning trend, wood countertops are great. With flowing edges, unique colors, and interesting textures, our reclaimed wood countertops are even better than modern solid wood countertops.
Fireplace Mantels
These beam mantels are the real thing – many with ax marks from American settlers in the 1800s. There’s no “distressing” in our shop; it’s all original. We sand and finish to make each beam a thing of beauty. Our blacksmith partners can add a wonderful variety of accents to each piece.

    It was great working with Kevin, so great I bought two mantels. He has the best selection of mantels on the internet. I also visited local artisans in GA but nobody had the beautiful finished product he provides. He was easy to work with and his website is the most thorough with multiple pics of each beam and they're listed by dimension. I just received the mantels and they were packaged nicely to make sure no damage to the edges or finish could happen while in transit. I can't wait to install them to complete my fireplaces. Pics to come.

    I visited several websites before I came across Kevin's mantel's. I was hesitant to do business with a large custom company that was out of state, so I was drawn to the fact that Kevin runs a small but professional shop. He answered my questions in a timely manner and offered alternatives when a particular piece was already sold. I chose one and within a day it was already on it's way to me. It arrived today and I couldn't be happier. I'm so impressed with the product and the service that I'm thinking of doing wooden countertops.

    The process of working with Kevin and the tam at Antique Woodworks was seamless and efficient. Even though everything was done remotely, it was very simple and questions we had were answered promptly.
    We could not be more pleased with the finished product and it was an added bonus to learn the history of the wood that was used in making our fireplace mantle. The piece they made for us will be a focal point in our home for years to come.

    The completed mantel is beautiful. Kevin is very easy to work with and shared many photos of different options as we worked through the build process.

    Kevin was very easy to work and responded to questions quickly. He sent lots of photos as we requested and the mantle piece is beautiful, exactly what we wanted. We needed it sent by a certain date for construction and it arrived in plenty of time. Thanks , we would definitely work with Kevin again .
