ARCHITECTURAL ANTIQUES

Have an interest in Architectural Antiques?   You can incorporate these pieces into an add-on, or build a room around a particular piece. Collecting Architectural Antiques for years, as well as using vintage wood and re-purposing interesting odds and ends into my work, has been my passion.
