Antique Wood Fireplace Mantels

Initially designed in medieval times, the fireplace mantel acted to be a hood that would catch smoke. However, the fireplace mantel has grown over time to add the decorative frame which surrounds an open fireplace. So, mantels provide a decorating highlight to any kind of area with a fireplace, designs which may or even may not extend all the healthy way to the ceiling. Sometimes known as a mantelpiece or maybe chimney piece, the open fireplace mantel has traditionally been an artistic element of an area while simultaneously offering useful components like saving the surrounding area provided by fire damage.

Candles are really the standard decorations for fireplace mantels. Back then, they did not have power lighting and also had to work with candles for light at night. It was the ideal place to situate candles, which can be taken to the room at night. The kinds of candles you place on your fireplace mantel is dependent on the dimensions of the mantel itself. The idea is to have a great balance, level and variation. You can have 2 massive candles on either end like, and maybe balance it with a big decorative piece in the middle. Or maybe you are able to have several little candles lined set up on the mantel. It truly is your choice, and you can transition it up to provide variation to your mantel every few months or thereabouts.
