Sale by "Pre-Demolition Sales" except there is no demolition.

This is a really good, large sale that we are handling for an ongoing customer, who is now moving from their fabulous home in Haverford (for sale for $2,300,000 just in case you are looking). The Mrs. is a high-end Main Line designer and she is selling numerous things from her collection that she has acquired over the years. Can't say enough about some of the exciting items that she has added to the sale. With no special order, we will try to comment on the pictures as they're shown below.

  • Exciting large old kitchen cupboard, never painted, getting hard to find ..... Another angle of cupboard ..... And another angle of cupboard .....

  • Corner cupboard. Not an antique, but very stately .....

  • Great looking, heavy, quality "shell" niche ..... Full shot of "shell" niche .....

  • Claw foot tub. Very clean. Rare to find one in such good condition ..... Another view of tub .....

  • The next 4 pictures are of 4 different fabulous "openings" that were removed by the owner from a very large famous restaurant, before demolition. Everything was photographed, each piece labeled, packed, and put in storage years ago. Creative minds will appreciate and envision each of the 4 projects ....

Every buyer of a pair of shutters will get ALL of the ORIGINAL hardware - slide bolt, two COMPLETE sets of hinges, and 2 "shutter dogs" (holds shutters open against the wall).
