An introduction to architectural-antiques.info
Welcome to architectural-antiques.info
If you have found this site, You can proberbly see it's not built yet. My old sites software wouldn't let me in to update it, so today I made the decision to pull the plug on the old girl!
Anyway I will be working hard to get rid of the "help" articles that come with this program and replace them with my own articles on, "learning about" and "restoring architectural-antiques".
Please bear with me as I try and learn this new software program.

We are a company based on the Isle of Wight (southern England) and Sarasota Florida, who used to deal in all manner of architectural antiques, but we mainly specialized in antique fireplaces and all the aspects of period fireplace restoration.
We are now changing the direction of the business and selling off all our stock of original antique fireplaces, Georgian,Victorian and Edwardian and easing up ( and eventually stopping ) the "hands on" restoration side of things and dedicating more of our time on supplying replacement fireplace spares, parts and restoration products.
Now I have decided to change the direction of my business and my life, I thought a new website would kill lots of birds with only a few stones!

Fireplace Glossary
Or Fireplace parts for dummies.
I don't want you to think I'm talking down to you or I'm being patronising, but I have been dealing with the general public about fireplace parts most of my life and it's amazing how difficult it is to get to the the point of what part they're after.
