  • Condition: Salvaged from PA. Made entirely of a solid hardwood (not hollow) & was designed with a central bulge and is wider in the middle than at the top or bottom.I think that there were 2 handrails connected to the column at some point & the mortises (slots or pockets) were filled.The rim around the area where the capital once sat is broken and chipped. We could remove whatever is left of it to give you a clean, smooth top, as well as make any other repairs or modifications. If you're interested, email us with a description of what you'd like done to the column and we'll give you a price.The column is strong, sturdy, and in great shape considering it's age. There nicks, scrapes, and scratches from top to bottom, which will be removed during sanding, & whatever remains could be filled with putty or left as "character marks." Once painted, it will look as good as new! There are no serious, structural flaws like big breaks, deep cracks, rot, termite damage, or warp. 92"H, Top&Bot=6", Mid=6 1/2"

    Description

    Penn Antique Restoration
    92" Antique SOLID Wood Round Tapered Structural Column
    (NOT HOLLOW)
    HEAVY, antique, porch column salvaged from Northeastern, PA.  It's made  entirely of a solid hardwood (not hollow) and is painted a silver color. The  column was designed with a central bulge and is wider in the middle than at the  top or bottom.
    I think that there were 2 handrails connected to the column at  some point and the mortises (slots or pockets) were filled.
    The rim around the area where the capital once sat is broken and  chipped. We could remove whatever is left of it to give you a clean, smooth top,  as well as make any other repairs or modifications. If you're interested, email  us with a description of what you'd like done to the column and we'll give you a  price.
    The column is strong, sturdy, and in great shape considering it's  age. There nicks, scrapes, and scratches from top to bottom, which will be  removed during sanding, and whatever remains could be filled with putty or left  as "character marks." Once painted, it will look as good as new! There are no  serious, structural flaws like big breaks, deep cracks, rot, termite damage, or  warp.
    Considering that the wood used to make this column was sourced  from a tree that lived hundreds of years before being cut down; it's much  harder/denser and is less prone to rot, warp, insects, and even fire than any  column made today. Today's columns are made wood sourced from trees that are  barely 20 years old. The wood hasn't matured long enough, and the new column  will need to be replaced sooner than this old one--they don't make them like  they used to!
