Antique Huge Italian Olive Oil Jar or Amphora Great Color Italian Late 1800's
Located in Chicago, IL
Not all antique Italian glazed Olive Oil Jars or Vases are created equal and this particular Olive Oil jar’s colors are simply beyond spectacular. Dating from the late 1800’s and discovered in a field in the south of Italy by an old friend. Most people refer to these as amphora jars, beginning in the Neolithic Period and running from approximately 9000BC to 3500BC. Generally, Amphorae were used in large numbers to transport Olive Oil and Wine. The design trade and most antique dealers simply call these vessels or Olive Oil Jars. For us, we look at the Olive Oil Jars as pieces of sculpture and they are as good looking outdoors as they are in your home. The color palette and the sheen of the glaze they are simply magical and create a truly great focal point. When we started in the antique business...

Vintage French Louis XVI Style Buffet with Marble Top in an Ebonized Finish
Located in Chicago, IL
Vintage French Louis XVI style Buffet, that our Old Plank restoration department completely stripped down to the bare mahogany and after a few days of hand-sanding, started the laborious task of applying an old school Ebonized finish to the wood. All of the brass components to our Louis XVI Ebonized Buffet were removed, cleaned and reattached after the Ebonizing process. The unusual color marble was carefully cleaned, however, we prefer not sending them out for polishing, since that changes the Ebonized Buffet from looking vintage, to looking like something new. All of the drawers work as they should and the keys for the original locks are still with the French Louis Style Buffet...

Country English Pastry Shop Potential Kitchen Island, Marble Top All Original

Located just outside the Cotswold’s in England, we were fortunate enough to discover this incredible all original marble topped pastry kitchen island, with an old cream painted wooden frame, with a slatted undertier. Finding old, completely unmolested, all original tables that can be substituted for a modern generic new kitchen island, is something that we, at Old Plank have specialized in for over 30-years. The trick has always been to locate an antique potential kitchen island, that was used commercially, yet finished on all four-sides and if you’re real lucky, it’ll have a marble top.

Antique Cupboard from Ireland Great Patina Unrestored Original Paint, C1800's

The Antique Cupboard that was removed from a home we believe may have been in Scotland. The Antique Cabinet, or Cupboard was located in Ireland, but upon cleaning out the Antique Painted Cupboard, we found receipts from the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland dated 1967. Certainly not definitive, however, the cabinet is absolutely from the British Isles and more than that, is the fact that no one has attempted to restore, or worse yet, refinish the cupboard. The Patina of Old Original Paint is quite impressive and I only wish we could duplicate it. This Painted Antique Cupboard...

Antique Black Forest Sofa from French Chateau in the South of France, Restored
Located in Chicago, IL
Another selection from the extensive collection of Old Plank's Black Forest furniture. We look at Black Forest furniture as being both a bit rustic and a little whimsical. Black Forest furniture dates from the late 1800’s to the early 1900’s and although most people believe Black Forest originated in Germany, or Austria, it was also made in France and Switzerland and the Swiss are the ones who invented the style in the City of Brienz. The original carving of Black Forest furniture and small animal sculptures was driven by the Tourist trade. Old Plank was fortunate to be able to purchase an entire room of Black Forest furniture from a chateau in the South of France, The collection includes; Black Forest chandelier, scones, huge mirrors...
