We're not real fond of staining, but this particular technique works pretty well. We use "asphaltum," which is basically tar thinned with mineral spirits. We then apply a couple coats of spray poly. The use of asphatum dates back thousands of years. It is a technique that is quietly used in many old woodshops.

The wood for this mantel comes from an old 1850's Minnesota barn. 1850s is very early in Minnesota history. In fact, Minnesota did not achieve Statehood until 1858. The original settlers and owners of this barn were technically squatting on Indian land.

Within reason, this one can be cut down to fit your dimensions. We will discount the price accordingly.
