This place was great, so much cool stuff to check out. Lots of skeleton keys and door knobs, weird scales and even a babydolls head in a c-clamp super rad and creepy check them out. The Owner and her daughter were there picking things up. They were both very friendly and even had a wee chat with mynl girlfriend about where in Scotland to go. Not to busy or uninterested in there busy day to enjoy a pleasant conversation. Great prices and friendly faces.
It was a pleasure having you and your girlfriend shopping with us. What fun it was to get travel tips from her as well for our future Scotland trips. Headed back to Edinburgh in August โค๏ธ. Thank you for writing such kind words. We appreciate our Architectural Salvage Family and Friends!

THE OWNER IS SO SWEET I DON'T KNOW HOW SHE BALANCES THAT WITH BUSINESS BUT SHE DOES....I BOUGHT 3 SETS OF GIANT DOUBLE DOORS SHE BOUGHT IN EUROPE FROM THE 1800s I BELIEVE....I BOUGHT A MODERN HOUSE IN PALM SPRINGS AND WANT TO INCORPORATE THESE OLD BEAUTIFUL DOTS TO IT.... THE OWNER EVEN MANAGED LOGISTICS BACK TO PALM SPRINGS FOR ME (This was luck so don't expect that but you never know)I CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK! ๐๐๐๐๐ฅ
