The Rickhouse Pale Honey 5' Mantel Shelf Kit is inspired by the historic bourbon aging warehouses found along Kentucky’s renowned Bourbon Trail. These rickhouses, where barrels slowly mature over time, are rich in character and tradition—qualities beautifully reflected in this handcrafted mantel.
Molded directly from an original 7.5” x 7.5” old-growth timber, this mantel faithfully captures authentic details including bark-edge waning, mortise and tenon joinery, deep checking, knots, saw marks, tooling marks, and striking wood grain with visible end grains. The Pale Honey finish introduces soft, golden tones that brighten the space while enhancing the natural texture and warmth of the wood.
Inspired by the bourbon aging process—where a portion of whiskey evaporates as the “Angels’ Share”—this mantel embodies a sense of timeless heritage and craftsmanship, creating a meaningful focal point in any room.
Crafted from Lexington Hearth’s proprietary non-combustible Burncrete™ formulation, this mantel delivers the look of reclaimed wood without splinters or fire risk. Each piece is individually hand-cast and hand-painted, resulting in subtle variations in color, weight, and dimensions that reflect its handcrafted authenticity.
Certified to ASTM E136 standards for non-combustible materials, this mantel is safe for installation near fireplaces. Intricate detailing on all exposed edges enhances its realism, while the included mounting bracket and fasteners ensure a secure and straightforward installation. Proudly made in the USA, the Rickhouse Pale Honey mantel blends historic charm with modern durability and performance.
