THE FLAT SAWN BEAM MANTEL:
Horse farms in Kentucky have a distinctive look with 3 & 4 rail fencing defining their paddocks. Typically, horse fencing is made with oak post and rails, but we like the beautiful rough-sawn grain of western red cedar. The Flat Sawn Beam mantel has a similar appearance to a fence rail, and the beam refinements provide a contemporary aesthetic for a nice alternative to our rustic mantels.
Some farms use double fencing as a safety practice. The extra fence row along a road protects the horses from vehicle accidents and any garbage that might be thrown from cars. It also allows groups of horses to see each other without the danger of them fighting with each other. With double fencing, horses are less likely to get past two barriers if they attempt to escape from the paddock.
Our rolling hills and paddocks make for a great training ground for foals and yearlings. All in all, this is a great place to be a horse—and our earliest settlers knew it.
A MODERN CUT FROM WESTERN RED CEDAR:
The beautiful rough-sawn grain of western red cedar reminds us of the distinctive 4-rail paddock fences bordering Kentucky’s thoroughbred horse farms. The narrow face profile and refined appearance make this mantel suitable for contemporary and transitional applications. Character details include rough-sawn woodgrain on the top and bottom surfaces, with a smooth face grain showing circular saw marks.
Our Flat Sawn Beam mantel is modeled from a rough-cut western red cedar beam. The mantel has a cross-section of 8.25” deep x 4” high. Available accessories include mantel extensions, mantel corners, and decorative corbels.

The scents of bourbon, oak, and vanilla greet you when you walk into a Rickhouse. These massive aging warehouses can store up to 20,000 barrels, containing about 1 million gallons of bourbon. Workers use a hand-operated “ricker” elevator to transfer the barrels onto storage racks called “ricks”, the namesake of a “Rickhouse”.
