Here’s how designer Sharon Allemong from Insite Interiors used one of our nautical chain tables.
Customer Showcase
Olde Good Things is known for fabricating olde antique artifacts and recreating them into useful furnishings for the home or office. Take a look at some of our customers homes and shops… Here’s just a sample of how they used Olde Good Things elements to decorate.
Our southern customer loves our tin! Here a full length mirror and (above right) a wall of decorative antique tin panels. Trove Warehouse features farm tables made from reclaimed white pine beams.

Customer Showcase – Our Famous Tin Panels!
One of our valued customers had a unique idea for our original tin ceiling panels. Originally 100 year old ceiling tin salvaged from NE United States commercial and residential buildings – this tin has been re-purposed by Olde Good Things to be used as decorative wall panels. These have been very popular for this purpose. But what did he do? He used them as originally intended – as ceiling tin – but this time as a many faceted patchwork tin ceiling. Very nicely done.  Come up with your unique ideas. These panels can be purchased online, through our retail stores and at our week-end outdoor sale locations at the Brooklyn Flea and Eastern Market in DC as well as Alameda Antiques Fair and the Rosebowl in California. 11 in. x 11 in. panels are only $35/ea. – 23 in. x 23 in. $65.

Opening Ceremony
Another showcase of our customer’s, Opening Ceremony in New York used two display cases placed in the center isle and a sales counter they got from us, as well as many other vintage items to create a contemporary look for their retail space. Find out more about Opening Ceremony on their website.
Time For Bed
Clockface Headboard
We always love it when a customer sends us a photo of the good things they’ve created. This customer used the face of a clock we got from a church tower in Brooklyn, and used it for a headboard on her bed. Very creative use of time. Originally there were of these faces on this tower built in 1899, but we only have one left that can be seen at our Olympic Ave location in Los Angeles.
The Collective
It’s always good to see people seeking salvaged goods to use for projects; it’s one of the reason we are in business. It’s even better to see a place like The Collective where everything olde is being reused. Robert DelPazzo and ICRAVE Design created a unique space that takes reclaimed items to an all new level of creativity, “The project was all about finding vintage pieces from all over and repurposing/reviving them!!” They did exactly that and you can see it for yourself in these pictures or stop by the Collective for a bite.
Creative Construction
Zak’s Creative Construction incorporated some olde good things (pictured below) to create great living environments that are warm and nostalgic.

Society Hill Pizza and Olde Good Things
The décor in Steven Starr’s latest addition to Philadelphia eateries includes more Olde Good Things from various sources… including table tops made from salvaged Coney Island Boardwalk Brazilian Ipe wood, outdoor chairs from the Philadelphia Civic Center, and enameled panels from an old bakery. The painted chairs were from various locations from New England to New York – all painted minty green by us – which makes for a great pizzeria setting with traditional wood-burning oven-made pizza. Visit Pizzeria Stella – 2nd and Lombard Streets in Philadelphia – enjoy the olde good things and the pizza!

Customer Showcase: Encaustic Tile Floor
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.
