Pair of Antique French Doors w/30
Wavy Glass Lites
Lovely
pair of
antique double doors salvaged from an old home in Northeastern PA. The doors are made of solid Douglas Fir or pine and are painted pink
on both sides.
Today, "pine" is known as a cheap, weak, soft wood. New pine hewn from 10 - 20 year old trees doesn't have the same insect-resistant, rot-resistant, or even fire-resistant qualities that old pine, hewn from trees hundreds of years old has. Old pine is also much harder and stronger than young pine.
The pair has an impressive arrangement of 30, true-divided windows. Most or all of the glass is original, wavy glass. Although the glass is considered "wavy" it's not extremely wavy. The glass distorts reflections because of it's slightly uneven surface, but don't expect crazy, funhouse-mirror-level distortion like glass from the 1800's.
Hardware
:
The doors are not equipped with any hardware. However, we have a good selection of period hardware to outfit it (check out our eBay store).
* If you would like any of the hardware holes plugged with solid wood, please email us for a quote.
Uneven Height
:
The height of one of the doors and the width of the other were uneven
ly cut by 1/4" at some point, most likely to compensate for an old warped floor or settling foundation. We could cut each to an even 29 3/4"x79 1/4", cut it shorter/narrower, or even build it up to make it taller/wider--email us for a quote.
Condition
:
Considering their age, these doors are in excellent condition! Expect the typical nicks and scratches, but no
breaks, cracks, rot, warp, or any other serious flaws. The doors are strong, sturdy, and ready for another lifetime of service.
A
ll of the
glass lites are intact and in great condition with only subtle scratches.
Refinish/Repaint
:
We could refinish, or partially or completely strip the doors to prepare any of them for you to repaint or refinish.
We have MANY photos of doors that we've restored that could give you an idea of how this pair could clean up
.
Email us with a small description of what you would like done, and we'll give you a quote.
Modification
:
We could also modify these doors to fit your opening or suite your needs. We could make a frame, trim or add to the height or width, replace glass with screen, reverse the swing, plug the hardware holes, etc. Email us with a small description of what you would like done, and we'll give you a quote.
