Antique Architectural Elements create more than an interesting museum…..just a sample of the ever-changing inventory. Architectural Antiques is a true browser’s paradise, a place to get lost among rare artifacts and amazing finds in a continually developing showroom.  It is a place of elements, big and small, where you can find a 16' art deco stained glass window or a simple antique doorknob.  It is all part of our mission - saving and integrating antique architectural elements, many with historical significance - finding joy by saving them from the wrecking ball & landfill, while at the same time helping people reuse these treasures and add a special touch to any environment, it’s our job!   On the following pages you'll find past items that have been removed from what would have been their last home, then recreated on our store floor and finially these antique architectural elements found their way to brand new environments. A new venue where they will spend a few more generations.
