Dish Cupboard

A new piece but exceptionally well done.

66"w x 87"h x 18"d

$3950

Wine Rack

These are cool! Originally shoe racks, they are made of neatly aged wood in metal frames. Only washed, the dry, clean, aged look goes perfectly with those dusty bottles you've been squirreling away!

Tables

A cluster of tables we recently put together. The biggest is in oak from a barn near Millbank, ON while the medium sized ones are heavy pine from a horse barn floor. The legs on the two larger tables have been shaped from barn braces while the other three tables feature porch and stair spindles for legs.

Great Gothic doors

These two doors came from Brantford - a church, as you can guess, c 1865.

Heavily carved pine with a goodly amount of paint gives these doors an erie, aged look.

Roughly 33 x 80 each - sold

Pine Harvest table

This robust table was made from salvaged pine barn flooring for the top with legs turned from braces in the same barn. The wear in the wood was hand sanded to retain as much texture as possible and then finished with many coats of spray lacquer.

Wide Plank Flooring

A good package of wide pine flooring from a house outside of Arthur, ON c1880. The boards average around 12" wide by 1" thick and cover about 380 square feet.

Painted Horse

We've been looking for a panel like this ever since we heard Dustin Hoffman wanted one - he got his some years ago, now it's our turn!

Paint on pine, c1900

36" x 48" - Sold

Garden Set

This is more of a rare find than you would think. It's very difficult to find good sets of garden furniture and this one is lovely.

Made at the Atlanta Stove Works in the last quarter of the 19th century, this heavy, cast iron set came out of the Sarnia, On area.

High tea, anyone?

Industrial Artefacts

We found a cache of goodies in an old grist mill and are slowly hauling it over - we're guessing about 5 tonnes or more.

Bronze Bank Doors

Oh, aren't these great? What an amazing entrance to a wine cellar these would make! The glass behind the grills opens on the other side.

37" x 83" - sold

Spider Window

We don't get these widows too often. This one measures 44" x 67 1/2" and would make a great mirror - or fatal attraction!

Sold

These doubles would make a fantastic cupboard front.

35" x 52" as a pair

Leaded Windows

We just got these leaded and beveled windows in three sizes. All are in excellent condition.

22" x 25"

c1920 Detroit

The medium sized windows of the group measure 18" x 37" and would make an excellent door for a pantry or linen cabinet.

Original Hardware

Over the past few moths, we've collected a large quantity of early 20th century hardware which was sorted and cleaned of paint after which we dressed the original finish before coating with a few coats of lacquer. The result...we think is quite stunning.

Coffee Table

We recently completed this oversize coffee table for a chalet in the Collingwood area. Put together from salvaged pine barn board for the top and barn braces turned for legs, this table could host a party all on its own!

Seth Thomas Clock

Lovely piece dating to the late 1860s, a quick search will show this is not your regular mantel clock style.

$495

Carved Mantel

Designed to replicate carved stone from France, this mantel features pine brackets and carved mahogany stair panels from different houses in Woodstock, ON.

Sold

Re sawn Beams

Fresh in are these planks of wood cut from 150 year old barn beams - oak, ash, elm and beech - perfect for dining table tops.

Joists

Its fireplace season and you're kind of disgusted with your mantel. Replace it with a joist from an 1830s house near Burlington. These 3" x 8" pine boards were pit sawn and have a lovely aged patina.

$15/foot

Porch work

Like little snowflakes, these cutwork pieces from Romania (c1910) measure about 6" x 8" and would add whimsy to any room.

$12 ea

Custom Cabinet

We recently finished and delivered this oversize cabinet to a cottage in the Muskokas. The doors came from Romania but the rest of the cabinet is local old growth pine and salvaged trim. This one-of-a-kind piece will never be repeated but there are any number of other parts to work with. What have you got in mind?

Dining Table

Simple yet elegant. The heavy, iron base was made by "Two Smiths" (see links page) and the top we made from 1860s ash flooring from Ilderton, ON..

This one was a custom order but something like it would run around $1950

More Tables

Cast Iron Finials

Heavy but manageable, these tops to lamp posts make welcoming sentries on either side of a front door and stand about 24" high .

Windows

We have many, many, MANY windows but only 3 like these. They've come from the tower of an Italianate Home in Sarnia. You could make a great triptych mirror in the salon!
