Clean very pretty white oak shelf with very nice figuring. Although it is not antique reclaimed, it has been air ageing for many years so it should be plenty stabile. Would be great in either a traditional or modern contemporary application.

NAME: Very Figured Maple Natural Finish
DIMENSIONS: 82-3/4″ long x 3-1/4″ thick x 9-3/4″ deep
SOURCE OF TIMBER: Northern Wisconsin Forest
APPROXIMATE AGE OF TIMBER: 100 yrs?
SPECIES: Hard Red Maple
COMMENTS: I’m fortunate to live in a northern hardwood forest where I have access to extraordinary timber. A local logger/ miller friend of mine puts aside special unique logs that show the most beautiful unique figured character. Then he ages them for a year, mills them into mantel slabs instead of his usual boards, and passes them on – only to Mendota Mantels! I’m very lucky to know him! (Thank You John!)
This is one of those rare pieces. It’s a “Live edged” hard red maple. It’s VERY figured.
For those of you who know wood, you’ll understand how special this piece is. For those of you who don’t know wood, just take a look, hopefully you’ll see how pretty, unusual, and unique it’s grain is. Not your typical maple slab mantel. If you want a rare one- of- a -kind mantel, this is it! On a scale of figuring from 1 to 10, this piece is a 10!

“Maxfield Parrish light blue” with matching corbels
I’m fortunate to live in a northern hardwood forest where I have access to extraordinary timber.

This is one of those rare pieces. It’s a “Live edged” hard red maple with matching corbels. I sculpted and sanded the live edge smooth as you can see.
This piece is quite figured. (thanks again for that John!)
Color reminded me of a color used often by one of my favorite artists. Hope I did it justice. I love the crazy rare beautiful figuring in this piece.

Hand Hewn Live Edge Front. Stained lighter brown.
Lots of character in this piece. Hand hewing markings, cracks, checks. It’s got it all. Live edge naturally contoured front and original old hand hewn top and bottom. We sanded it lots though so it’s nice to touch. This old timber definitely shows it’s antique history.
