Chandeliers, Bars, and Mirrors, Oh My
Much of the architectural salvage found within dates back to the 1800s, shortly after Cincinnati established itself as a veritable city. The sheer amount of items featured within the Wooden Nickel Antiques store is mindblowing. It becomes even more fascinating when you consider every item or piece of architectural salvage has its own story that gives you a glimpse into Cincinnati’s history.
The bulk of items within Wooden Nickel Antiques are salvage items from long-abandoned buildings. Much of this includes back bars, stained-glass windows, ornate mirrors, and a wide variety of architectural salvage.
Frankly, it’s a marvel to take it all in, but it’s even more fascinating to consider who once owned these pieces. Who once sat at these bars? Who once looked into these mirrors? It’s enough to send a chill down anybody’s spine. There are a thousand stories packed into this store, all waiting for you to uncover them.
The connection with the past this store possesses feels like stepping through a portal in time. It is hard to feel alone when standing among the startling array of items, and it often feels as though the original owners are standing right there with you.
