Let us check out a few ideas on how to use vintage architectural salvage to enhance the look of your entire home.


Lighting Fixtures and Fans


Let’s start with lighting, while buying antique lamps, ceiling fixtures or fan make sure you carefully measure any piece under consideration. Reproduction lighting fixtures and fans might not be as charming as the originals but they don’t need to rewired, re-plated or cleaned with metal polish.

Extra ordinary Millwork

Finding an exact match for an existing stairway railing is quite difficult but finding its close fit can help! So make sure to buy the salvage pieces that fit well into the treads and handrails perfectly. Similarly, while buying vintage doors do check the size and shape well as even a door half inch thicker than the opening won’t fit!

Bathroom Fittings


Vintage sinks, bath tubs and even commodes come under the most sought after stuffs! Sounds unusual but they are in a demand! Although reproduction pieces are also available that give exactly the same impact as the vintage ones still the later one is more in demand. But you need to look over any potential purchase carefully.


Classic Flooring

Wide flooring made of pine, chestnut, or any other old-growth wood is a brilliant alternative to new hardwood flooring. Usually experienced dealers re-mill the flooring to get rid of any imperfection and warps in order to make it a dimension consistent one. So, whether it is re-milled or not salvaged flooring need to be free from warps and also, the tongue and groove edges must be in good conditions.
