by New Inventory has come through our doors so fast this summer that there has been virtually no time to process it, blog on it, and post it for sale before much of it sells. We have more customers than ever in some process of home builds and commercial interior design projects and everyone is on the hunt for period architectural elements, farm house kitchen sinks and entire vintage bath outfits…vintage pedestal sinks, trough sinks, claw-foot and skirted bathtubs, toilets and even foot baths.
We continue to get requests for multiple matching doors and ironically we’ve been buying sets of doors, interior and exterior, from old homes and buildings throughout Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri.
This Circa 1900 exterior door set is a rare find! The solid wood quarter light exterior door is a surprising 9 feet tall by 34 inches wide.
Notice the unusual transom style window pain in the upper portion of this tall door. It seems that the hinges, knobs, locks, and springs are all original.
Along with this door, we purchased its original screen door which is still tight and functional. Only one short turning is missing but all other decorative pieces are in-tact. The screen has an interesting patina and has a density that leads us to believe it is original. If you’re working through a small house build or remodel this door set has such architectural appeal that you could build your entry remodel or new house build!

Out of St Louis, Missouri, comes this impressive 1930 Kohler, single bowl, double drainboard, extra wide rim, apron farm sink. Believe it or not, this sink is in original condition.

It’s clean and boosts a good amount of its original factory shine. The back-splash is slightly lower than most which will make it an easy fit under the kitchen window. It measures 60 inches wide, 22 inches deep and 16 inches tall. This particular style farm sink can wall mount with legs or cabinet mount.
This is the iconic farm sink style that is in high demand and to find one in the condition is like finding a needle in haystack. Our customers are finding a variety of applications beyond the kitchen.
One of our favorite finds of the month are these two immaculate matching 1943 vitreous China wall hanging bathroom sinks. Both are in original condition, no visible wear and still showing off their original factory sheen.
The slim but functional size of these sinks makes them an ideal children’s bath or micro master bath application. If you want authentic high-quality vintage flare in your new period home build or remodel these are more than a perfect choice.

Coming off the truck this week is this set of solid wood panel rolling pocket doors from a home in St. Louis, Missouri, dating back to 1888.
Both are in original condition including hardware and their unusual top rolling mechanisms. As rolling pocket doors this hardware was hidden in the walls but now we love to show off the mechanics in our barn-slider styled doors.
Each door is approximately 95 inches tall and 30 inches wide. These doors will create a solidly authentic barn-style rolling door design feature in the best of spaces!
More! More! More coming! Our truck is on the road now collecting from St. Joseph to St. Louis, Missouri and making stops in Kansas and Oklahoma before coming home to Texas. Watch for new listings. Never hesitate to call and ask if we have pictures of any items of interest not yet on the site. We’re always glad to help our clientele in their search for unique fixtures and design elements!
Call or text 830-385-1721 for more information.
We have from the past your future build or remodel happiness!
