Old-Timer Fireplace Mantels
Our Old-Timer fireplace mantels capture the look and feel of early American hand-hewn timbers — the kind of old timer fireplace mantels once found in barns, cabins and pioneer homes. If you love the warmth, history and authentic character of truly old-world wood, an Old-Timer mantel brings that story into the heart of your home.
Each mantel is handcrafted in Denver, Colorado from real solid wood. Many pieces feature adze and axe marks, natural checking, and the gentle wear that only time can create. No two mantels are ever alike — every Old-Timer mantel has its own grain, texture and soul.
Hand-Hewn Character — Built from Real Wood
Old-Timer mantels are ideal when you want a fireplace that feels warm, grounded and rooted in tradition. These old timer fireplace mantels retain more of the natural exterior of the tree, echoing the look of historic timber construction while still being finished smooth enough for everyday living.
We offer Old-Timer mantels in a variety of wood species including oak, Douglas fir and pine. Oak delivers a bold vintage grain. Fir adds warmth and strength. Pine offers a classic frontier feel. You simply choose the size, finish and character level — and we handcraft the mantel to fit your space.
You can also explore our other styles, such as rustic fireplace mantels and beam-style mantels, or browse real installation photos in our mantel gallery.
Craftsmanship You Can Feel
We’ve been creating handcrafted fireplace mantels since 1999. Our craftsmen carefully shape, sand and finish each mantel so it celebrates the wood’s natural character rather than hiding it. Every mantel is made-to-order and packaged with care to arrive ready for installation.
Many of our timbers come from reclaimed or standing-dead wood, preserving the beauty of natural material that might otherwise be lost. To learn more about rustic and reclaimed wood performance, you can visit the USDA Forest Service.
