The 4 x 8 oak mantel beam is ideal for those who prefer depth over height. Its deeper proportions draw the eye along, adding elegance and stature to your fireplace. An ideal place to display those personal photos and knickknacks that make a home. With shaped edges that give a rustic, hand-worked look, it blends traditional craftsmanship with natural beauty.
Standard & Custom Options – available as a 4x8 beam or made to your exact specifications.
Complete with Fixings – supplied with screws and plugs. Recommended for solid walls; stud wall fitting requires specialist fixings (not included).
Precision Finished – final sizes may vary by half an inch or so, reflecting its handcrafted nature.
Our timber is sourced through trusted British suppliers. While some materials may originate from overseas, every 4 x 8 oak mantel piece is carefully chosen to ensure both quality and authenticity.
Because oak is a natural wood, it will subtly change over time, adapting to your home and developing its own character. This means your 4 x 8 oak mantel fireplace beam becomes more than furniture — it becomes part of your family’s story, crafted to last for generations.
We recommend unpacking your beam on arrival and allowing it to rest at room temperature for around two weeks before fitting.
Please note: digital colour samples may appear lighter than the finished mantel.
