Reclamation Home Furnishings

On the hunt for a few certain items to furnish my new place with I decided to checked out Reclamation Home Furnishings thanks to Unilocal.This store was just what I was looking for. Great combo of new-​ish and old items well displayed, good condition and with reasonable prices. The beautiful ladies working that day helped me look for pieces’ l might like and talked to me about ideas I hadn’t even thought of. One of the better stores I feel in the area for antiques. With no pressure to buy and a lot to take in I lost track of time looking at all the articles. If you find yourself in the area, I highly recommend checking them out. You may walk home with a treasure like I did.

Fun shop full of eclectic vintage treasures. Reasonable prices & friendly staff. Lots to look at!

Five Total Vendors in this Cool Reclaimed Treasure Furniture and Décor Store! The Store itself has Wonderful Character in those Great Creaky Hardwood Floors and the contents of the store! Vendor Boothe’s are so carefully displayed, without knowing it, the store has a seemingly boothless flow, which could be accidental though here appears to have happened as a result of Skill and Arts, Craftsmanship!
Mr. Haberdasher wrote a Brilliant Review for this place and He has GREAT Taste! I’m recommending his detailed review!

Locale:
On the edge of commercial sector of old downtown Pittsboro in the intersection between Hillsboro and Salisbury Street, there is a corner store that focuses on antique/​vintage furniture and decorative arts peppered with a few current items. The store’s ethos focuses on sustainability, but not just for the sake of selling «old things» but rather as a replacement for «new things» and to prevent such items from accumulating in a landfill as they clean and repair (when needed) items before setting them on display. As you walk toward the store you are greeted with a welcoming blue-​green colored sign, announcing that you have arrived at your destination.
Ambiance:
On a hot and sunny summer day, it is very nice to be hit with a wall of cool air as you walk through the door and begin to browse. Not too cold, but just right. Don’t you just hate walking into a freezer when you’re dressed for the beach? Don’t worry about that here.
Unlike many antique/​vintage goods stores, this one has plenty of room to walk without bumping into other people or items. Also unlike many similar businesses, the items are displayed very neatly and with thought. For example, a 1930s vanity and a Victorian armoire were appropriately staged with accessories that would have been used originally. This helps design-​challenged people with ideas on how to personalize the item after purchase.
In the Bag:
The assortment of items runs the gamut from Victorian pieces to a more contemporary selection, although the bulk of the items are early 20^th century to most of the «younger» pieces being more than 30 years old. There were also some Mid-​Century modern pieces like the patio set, and the dinette. Additionally there were some items that harken back to the time when North Carolina was mostly an agricultural state and these items provide a first-​hand glimpse at how life was at that time, such as the vintage enamel chamber pot.
On the back wall there is a selection of vintage housewares, and collectable glasses. Behind the cash register is a doorway that leads to a stock room that is filled with merchandise, likely not accessible to the public. So although the sales floor has somewhat fewer items than many similar stores, because the layout was thoughtfully planned, there is plenty of backup merchandise in the case where many items are sold at once.
Considerations:
This store provides its clientele with unique and vintage items that you can actually use in your home. The selection feels curated and gives the impression that the store owner has given consideration to the selection and presentation, which gives this place a polished and professional feel. The prices are quite good, so you can expect items to be priced well lower than new items (in «normal» non-​high end stores) albeit with the better build-​quality that cannot be accessibly found today.
If you can, I highly recommend this place to do furniture shopping. You may find something here that you will like, and you will be helping the environment by keeping vintage furniture out of landfills.
