A decorative corbel brings a sense of period grandeur to a room, and is a great choice if your space is lacking in interesting architectural features. Throughout history, the use of the grapevine in art and architecture has been a symbol of abundance. The lifelike leaves accenting full clusters of grapes call to mind a lush land of rolling vineyards. With its impeccable hand carved detail, this beautiful Grape Corbel With Acanthus Leaf is an elegant accent, lending its support gracefully wherever it is used. For areas where you need a bracket that is small in size but with no compromise in design, we offer our Small Grape Corbel with Acanthus leaf. It is a great option to consider when you need the presence and style of a bracket but you don't have a great deal of room. As with all hand-carved items, no two will be exactly identical. There are 2 vertically-mounted metal keyhole openings on the back of this corbel for easy mounting.

Corbels create instant beauty and sophistication in any space. In practical uses, they provide support for countertops, shelves, and more, while elegantly transforming the look of your home. Our wood corbels showcase the grain and color of wood, resembling beautiful pieces of art. Furthermore, the selection between intricately carved or simply designed corbels can dramatically alter the atmosphere of a room. Osborne Wood Products produces our world-class corbels in many different styles, materials, and sizes to meet your design needs.
When placing corbels beneath a countertop, focus on the depth of the corbel. Corbels supporting a countertop should measure at least ½ of the overhang’s depth. However, these corbels gain visual appeal with larger dimensions. Corbels that measure ⅔ or ¾ of the overhang’s depth provide both better looks and extra support. For example, a countertop with a 12 inch overhang requires supporting corbels that are at least 6 inches deep, but feel free to use 8 inch or 9 inch corbels to enhance the countertop’s appearance.
Corbels used to brace shelves must measure at least ⅔ of the shelf’s depth in order to properly support the shelf. However, it is recommended to support a shelf with corbels measuring ¾ of the shelf’s depth, as this creates better support and visual appeal. For example, a shelf that is 12 inches deep requires supporting corbels that are at least 8 inches deep, but 9 inch corbels provide better looks and support.
