Hafele makes a lag that has two adjustable eccentric collars on it. You install them into the wall studs, drill holes 13mm or 17/32¡± in diameter about 5¡± deep into the shelf and then adjust the collars to make the shelf perpendicular to the way and slide the shelf on. No visible means of support and they work well. Not sure if I¡¯d use them for a solid 7¡± thick mantel unless I could get two or more vertically on each stud, but they work great for shelving.

I've done similar shelf installation down and dirty with lag screws into the studs. Once driven, the heads were cut off, and holes bore in the back of the shelves with an auger bit. Squirt some PL adhesive in the holes and slide it on.
