Cast Mantels
Buffalo Architectural Casting is proud to present our collection of custom fireplace mantels made from cast travertine. Our mantels can be used with masonry, prefabricated, gas or wood burning fireplaces. We construct our custom fireplace mantels from select stone aggregates, a process also known as Scagliola, allowing them to be fireproof while maintaining a travertine appearance that has the same look as real travertine stone. Compared to cast stone (concrete) or carved stone mantels, cast travertine fireplace mantels weigh much less, 200 lbs. vs. 1000 lbs. and take less time to install. It can take as little as a few hours to install our custom fireplace mantels versus a stonemason that would be needed to install a travertine mantel taking a few days. Cast travertine fireplace mantels create the same feeling, beauty and texture of a carved stone fireplace mantel at a lesser cost.
Our custom fireplace mantels can also be produced using materials for exterior use to make a beautiful addition to any outdoor living area.
