Entry Door w/Window & Panel
Gorgeous
, antique, exterior door salvaged from an old home in Northeastern PA. It has a solid chestnut core covered with 1/8" thick oak veneers. It's stained and finished on both sides (not painted).
Please don't think that "veneer" means inferior quality. Unlike the paper-thin veneers used on modern doors and furniture, these veneers are 1/8' thick and provide strength and stability to the door. This door could be refinished a couple of times without sanding down to the core wood.
There is a half-length window with raised panel below. Although the door doesn't have any glass, we could order and install the glass of your choice (i.e. beveled, clear tempered, acid-etched/frosted, textured, etc.)

Hardware
:
The door is not equipped with any hardware. However, we have a good selection of period hardware to outfit it (check out our eBay store).

Quirks & Considerations
:
The width and height were
unevenly cut by 1/2" - 1/2" at some point. The cuts were most likely made to compensate for a settling foundation or an old warped floor. We could cut the door to an even 41 5/8"x 94 1/2", cut it shorter or narrower, and we could also add wood to it to make it taller or wider to fit your opening

Most panels are not just one very wide board, but instead several narrow boards glued together, side-by-side. The glue joining 2 or 3 of the boards has worn off, and as a result, the panel has a very tight split in the middle and a shorter split between 2 other boards. We tried to take close ups of both sides of the panel to show the splits, but they are so tight that they're tough to spot.
The molding around the panel is removable and the panel could also be removed, disassembled, and thoroughly cleaned. Once the dirt and build-up between the boards is removed, the panel could be reassembled and tightened with modern wood glue, which is superior to old, hide glue. The gaps will be removed and the panel will be seamless once again

Condition
:
Considering that the door is well over 100 years, it's in great shape. It
has
the typical scrapes, scratches which are normal to find on door this old. However, there is no rot, warp, or any serious flaws like cracked/broken joints.
The worst blemishes are shown in the last photo: a chipped piece of window molding and a small piece of veneer broken off one of the lower corners.
We could patch these part
