These corbels work well for our mantel situation, although for my personal taste, I wish they were a bit less detailed. They are exactly as advertised. I couldn’t find exactly what I wanted in the right size, and these will work until I do. Our mantel needed to have a bit more “heft”, and this seemed like a good way to get that. They are super light-weight, obviously not made of real wood, but because they are painted, you can’t tell that. And with there being so light, they are pretty much trouble free to install. In fact, I have them mounted temporarily with Velcro dots just to be sure they were going to work!

Very nice addition to my home. Just what that opening needed.

Great price. Super solid construction. Has great weight to it. Only thing is, it didn’t come with any mounting hardware or screws. But I still like it.
