Fireplace mantle stain

Becca
last year

We were going to have a traditional white fireplace surround with this tile but with the codes for distance between wood and the fire, the mantle would have been about 8 feet which looked way too big for the small wall it’s on. We had them do a floating mantle instead, but now I’m not sure how this will look with our tile. It is unfinished now- We are thinking of staining it a walnut color (sample stains can be seen on piece of wood above the mantle). Would anything else look better?
They still need to patch up the wall and the firebox itself needs to be cleaned up and probably paint the inside (anyone know what to paint the inside of a firebox with?)
Thanks for any input
