New Items

Now available through Olde Good Things are some original lighting and other architectural details from a fine East 82nd Street, NYC, home. What follows is only a sample!
The lighting has been restored – only to be brought up to current specifications – otherwise we have maintained the authentic rich patina these pieces had when removed. We also salvaged a paneled room, hand-painted doors as well as several marble mantels. Take a look online as well as in our stores and inquire about availability and pricing. If you are interested in anything contact us.

Customer Showcase: Encaustic Tile Floor

Posted on by

Here at Olde Good Things, our customers are the best originators–reusing salvaged materials and revitalizing them–transforming them into perfect accents in new building projects. Here’s an example. One of our customers purchased a reclaimed encaustic tile floor and put together his own design. This added a really nice touch to an otherwise simple cement stoop. Quite an artist isn’t he? We’ll be glad to showcase any of our customers’ work and put it on our blog for all our readers to get ideas, so feel free to send us pictures if you’ve implemented olde good things in your redesign or building project.

Tudor Accouterments

While many of you know of our beautiful stained glass collection, you may not know that we have a huge selection of trim, woodwork, crown moulding, paneling, and mantels. Well we do. In fact we have some sets of entire rooms that are collected from some prestigious homes across the U.S.

These pictures you are seeing are of a new home built a few years ago. The builders bought an entire room from the Constable Estate in New York, better known as the West Chester Day School. Each room in the estate was designed and decorated in a different style.

A Classic Revival

Posted on by

Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood in Northeastern Pennsylvania are several perfect examples of salvaged materials being given new life. The owners of this house frequented our warehouse finding multiple items to revive, giving ultimate character to their home. This shows that reclaimed architecture can be very beautiful as well as rewarding when used in the proper setting.
