Antique Oak Mantel Frame – Reclaimed Quartersawn Trim

Description :
This antique oak mantel frame features striking quartersawn oak grain and a deep brown patina that hints at its turn-of-the-century craftsmanship. Likely salvaged from a fireplace or architectural opening, this piece has been preserved with its original profile molding and tongue-in-groove joinery intact. It offers endless repurposing potential—ideal as a repurposed headboard, wall mirror frame, or even as an architectural accent for a built-in nook. Some surface wear consistent with age, but solid and structurally sound for most reuse applications.
