"WHAT SETS US APART FROM OUR COMPETITORS"
What are these Carts?
These
historic Antique Factory Carts were originally used in various factories throughout
the United States to transport goods around the factory. Over the years, people
have begun collecting these carts for their unique individual character and "green" qualities. These carts are used for several purposes;
unique coffee tables, retail display tables, indoor firewood storage, garden
apparatus, as a functioning cart, and much more. Perfect for loft apartments, beach houses, lake houses, hunting lodges, or any urban house, as the focal point of any room. Despite already being a 100 years old they will be here and still in great condition for our grandchildren to enjoy. Also they have been in proudly displayed in magazines such as Coastal Living, Southern
Living, and the cover of March 09' Total Beach House Magazine (a Coastal Living Published Magazine).
My Carts
I
have several carts available for sale, which date back to the early 1900's. All
parts of the cart are original to that cart, and have not been replaced or
modified. I still have a few with the names of the original manufacturer on the
side.
The
carts all vary in dimensions but most are approximately 48" x 28" x 16"
and are made of solid oak wood and cast iron casters.
All
of my carts are available as "Partial Cart", "Original Condition”, "Cleaned",“Fully Refinished” or
Custom.
Partial cart = Incomplete carts aka Partial carts of Style # 2,3,4 are ONLY $165 plus shipping. Incomplete simply means that they have a board or more missing or have had at least one old board replaced by a new board. We offer this special because we ONLY sell our carts in original condition in which we have found them in.
"Cleaned" cart = original condition cart leveled and stabilized for only $549. First we remove all glue, staples, etc from the wood and punch all nails in. Then we sand to remove all splinters and smooth all edges as if we were going to refinish it. Then we clean all the metal outside and underneath the cart. Then we sand the bottoms of all the wheels down to bare metal. Then apply a protective clear coating to the bottoms of the wheels so they are ready for your floors. Then we level and stabilize your cart. At this point your cart will be completely ready for your house and in the original but "Cleaned" condition.
Fully
Refinished cart = $699. All wood is sanded down to remove splinters and most debris, stained,
and then sealed with polyurethane for a durable long lasting professional
finish. All metal including cast iron casters are removed, sanded down to bare
metal then a solution is applied to reveal the natural patina of the metal
resulting in an elegant antique finish void of rust and then a clear coat is applied to all metal to maintain a rust free finish for many years to come. I also offer and recommend the metal to be refinished in a high quality flat black that is hand painted carefully on all metal surfaces which is how every cart was originally made many years ago.
The
refinished carts present with a more fashionable elegance, while maintaining their
unique and antique character.
Custom
carts = start at $999 and consist of unlimited options such as altering the width/length, replacing all
nails and nuts with square heads, glass added to the top, specific stain hue,
specific finish (oil, polyurethane, wax etc.) Also you can customize your cart with an original piece of artwork by Larry Rackley at www.yellowfingallery.com. He hand paints every painting individually then applies a very protective clear coat so the top of the cart is still functional. More info will be available soon or upon request. Contact us
via email prior to purchasing if you decide on a custom cart.
