Solid wood, hand-carved corbel sized 18 x 10 x 6 cm for decorative trim. Intended for easy DIY mounting using glue and mechanical fixings, suitable for shelves, mantels and cabinet corners.
Adds period character - with hand-carved solid wood
Hand carving removes wood to create raised motifs and shadow lines, while full sanding refines edges and surface texture. The result reproduces traditional European ornamentation in a compact block.
Visible depth and texture lift plain joinery, bringing an authentic period feel to cabinets, hoods and door corners without complex restoration work.
Ready to finish - thanks to a fully sanded surface
A fully sanded finish reduces prep time by offering a consistent surface for paint or stain to adhere to. Bare timber accepts a range of finishes from clear lacquer to pigmented stains.
Quick to customise on-site, enabling colour-matching to existing woodwork or a contrast finish to make the carving stand out.
Practical mounting options - with glue and mechanical fixings
Design allows both adhesive and screw/nail fixings, and drilling pilot holes increases mechanical holding strength. Manufacturer recommends using glue alongside screws for a more secure attachment.
Suitable for decorative shelves and light mantels when secured correctly, making the corbel functional as well as ornamental.
