At Restoration Resources’ 7,000-square-foot showroom and warehouse, treasure hunters can discover ornate mirrors, hand-carved mantels, hard-to-find fixtures and sundry other unique finds salvaged from old buildings across New England, from an antique cobbler’s repair stand to church pews and statuary. Owner Bill Raymer has lent his expertise to This Old House, and he and his team are happy to share ideas on how to repurpose pieces for modern use. Browsing their wares is like traipsing through time—no wonder this magical space has served as a setting for photo shoots and special events.
