Rustic Oak Fire Surround with Corbels
£549.00
Our rustic oak fire surround with corbels adds timeless traditional character to any living space, expertly handcrafted from premium, solid European character oak. Featuring a substantial chunky mantel beam, solid oak legs, and handcrafted corbel brackets beneath the mantel, this heritage design brings classic architectural detail and natural warmth to your fireplace.
As authentic bespoke furniture makers, we handcraft every fire surround with corbels from scratch in our Lincolnshire workshop. We do not stock mass-produced imports. The corbels are not decorative add-ons — they are solid oak brackets handcrafted to match the surround, adding visual strength where the mantel meets the legs. Because each piece is made to order, we can tailor it completely to your requirements, including mantel length, beam depth, leg width, corbel style and size, and chamber opening.
Every surround is built using 100 percent solid, kiln-dried character oak, no veneers, MDF, or particle board. Each piece is unique, showcasing natural knots, rich grain patterns, and authentic rustic texture. Built with traditional joinery for exceptional durability, this surround is engineered to last for generations. Prefer a cleaner look without brackets?

FAQ
Q: Are you a direct workshop or an online retailer?
A: We are authentic bespoke furniture makers crafting every piece by hand to order in our Lincolnshire workshop in Louth. We do not buy in or resell mass-produced imports.
Q: What are corbels and what do they add?
A: Corbels are the traditional solid oak brackets fitted underneath the mantel beam where it meets the legs. They add heritage character and extra visual support to the mantel. We handcraft each corbel from solid oak to match your surround perfectly.
Q: Can you adjust the surround with corbels to fit my fireplace?
A: Yes. Because we build every surround from scratch, we can customize the mantel width, leg width, corbel size and style, overall height, and chamber opening to perfectly frame your stove, log burner, or hearth.
Q: Is this unit solid oak throughout including the corbels?
A: Yes. The mantel, legs, and corbel brackets are all 100 percent solid European character oak — never hollow cores, veneers, or engineered wood.
Q: How is the fire surround with corbels installed?
A: To ensure safe transit and easy installation, the surround is supplied in three main pieces (the mantel with corbels attached and two upright legs). It comes complete with heavy-duty concealed fixings to securely mount the timber to your wall.
Q: How should I maintain the oak finish?
A: Keep your oak furniture looking beautiful by wiping surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. Re-apply a high-quality clear furniture wax or oil every 6 to 12 months to protect the timber and keep it nourished against the heat of the fire.
