Antique Reclaimed Wood
All of our corbels and mantels are expertly crafted from vintage reclaimed wood, offering a unique blend of history, character, and sustainability. Sourced from old barns and structures, this wood showcases natural imperfections and a weathered appearance, adding rustic charm to any space.
Benefits of Vintage Reclaimed Wood:
- Sustainable Choice: Using reclaimed wood significantly reduces the demand for new lumber, promoting sustainable building practices. It conserves forests and minimizes the environmental impact of logging and processing.
- Unique Aesthetics: Each piece of reclaimed wood has its own story, featuring distinctive grain patterns and textures that can't be replicated with new materials. This individuality adds warmth and authenticity to your mantels and corbels.
- Durability and Strength: Vintage wood is often more stable and durable than newly harvested wood, as it has already experienced natural weathering. This resilience ensures that our mantels and corbels will withstand the test of time while maintaining their beauty.
- Rich History: Every beam and corbel carries the legacy of the structures from which they were sourced. Incorporating these elements into your home not only enhances your decor but also connects you to the craftsmanship and heritage of the past.
