Recycling The Past With Architectural Salvage Items For The Present And Future
As part of the responsible effort to go green and recycling, architectural salvage items are growing in popularity as an affordable option for home décor while preserving the beauty and artistry of the past.
In the simplest terms, architectural salvage is the process of rescuing items and materials from buildings and homes that are scheduled for demolition. Items can include everything from decorative wood items, ceramic tiles, wall panels, hardware pieces, doors and windows, flooring, even industrial and commercial items. As one of the largest architectural antique dealers in the country, Olde Good Things employs their “architect urologists” to scope out the best of the best in architectural salvage from doomed-to-demolition masterpieces and make it available to you.
Their vast inventory architectural salvage items includes a smorgasbord of items rescued from late 19th century and pre-depression era architectural gems (buildings) that might otherwise have been used for mere landfill. Perish the thought! Fortunately, these old good things are available in abundance to collectors and interior designers from coast to coast. Imagine a warehouse of more than 100,000 square feet, plus another three acres of outdoor space, filled to capacity with such unique treasures as roman doric tapered round columns, marble wall slabs, oak molding, fireplace mantels and accessories, functional and decorative hardware, and so much more.
Olde Good Things has their national warehouse located in Scranton, Pennsylvania, plus four locations in New York, and two in California – making them truly a coast-to-coast operation. But you don’t have to come to them to browse their vast inventories and haul it yourself. The company has quite an extensive and well-organized website that allows you to browse thousands if items, find out how many are available, and browse by price range. When you see something that interests you, just give them a call, send an email or go directly to ordering and shipping.
Whether you’re looking to replace or remodel items in a vintage home, or just looking to add something unique to your collection of architectural artifacts, take a look at what’s available from Olde Good Things. You won’t be disappointed.
