Penn Antique RestorationSet of 3 Antique SOLID Wood 89" Round Tapered Structural Columns & Capitals
(NOT HOLLOW)
HEAVY, antique, porch columns salvaged from Northeastern, PA. They made entirely of a solid hardwood (not hollow) and are painted a pale blue color. The columns are tapered and are wider at the bottom than at the top.
The columns were installed on a porch and connected with handrails. We could fill the mortises (slots or pockets) where the handrails connected, with solid wood 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 columns and we'll give you a price.
The columns are strong, sturdy, and in great shape considering their age. There are 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, they 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 these columns was sourced from trees that lived hundreds of years before being cut down; they're much harder/denser and is less prone to rot, warp, insects, and even fire than new columns 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!
