What types of furniture do you specialize in?
Our furniture is mostly "saved pieces" from 1870 to 1920, although we occasionally carry older and newer pieces of note.
What does "saved piece" mean?
"Saved piece" means an item has been rescued and restored to some extent. When necessary, stripped and refinished, sometimes just cleaned and waxed. As needed, new pieces will be fabricated to make something whole again. Original hardware is always saved and reinstalled, if at all possible. The goal is for every piece to look original, be usable and beautiful.
