Thinking about upgrading that old mantel? There are lots of options our there.
For example, how about a custom mantel designed by Enkeboll Designs in Carson, California. The company has over 550 design patterns to choose from ranging from swan and lion mantel bases to grape medallions and floral trims, rosette moldings and Corinthian capitals. Throughout the world, Enkeboll products are associated with quality, endurance and elegance.
The extensive inventory of products includes corbels, finials, onlays, crowns, molding keys, arches, moldings, panels, pulls, rosettes, newel posts, handrails, balusters, capitals, columns, plinths mantel and bar elements.
Raymond Enkeboll founded the company in 1956. It began as a furniture shop in a chicken shed in Venice, California. Now, the company employs 156 highly trained workers in a 75-thousand square foot design warehouse in Carson, California.
The company’s roots are in wood, in art and design, a powerful legacy which can be seen in all of the company’s products. Each new piece begins as a sketch. Like the professional wood carvers and sculptors before them, the new Enkeboll design team has the experience to think three dimensionally and to visualize the final result. Their sketches are given to master carvers who draw and execute the ideas.
