Hi all-
Here is a mantelpiece recently completed. This fireplace was a bit awkward - open on 3 sides, front opening is 50" across, sides 36". The mantel is hard maple/maple ply, the overmantel and flanking bookcases are poplar, painted. The sunlight and shadows in this photo are making the finish look much different than it does in person. I will try to take some more pics - still have to float the ceiling at the crown. Finish is dye/shellac/gel glaze/poly.
Thanks for looking, have a blessed day.
