A restorers treasure chest. Theyve got really great stuff and a sweet cat.

When its time there open ..you must see the biggest surprise in a little amazing shop!...definitely going back.

What a little piece of Heaven for those who truly appreciate architecture, interior design and history. I LOVE THIS PLACE! Definitely worth the trip to Toledo, Ohio and easy to get to. The owners, Bob and Jane, are over the top friendly and helpful. I have found my go to place for my house!

Great place to find that hard to find item. Very nice folks running it.

Fascinating eclectic collection of artifacts and antiques. I always find 3 things I cant live without.

Jane and Bob are awesome and you’ll be amazed at some of the fines you never knew you needed! A great place to ideate for a diy project.

Love this place,so many beautiful antiques! My new go to antique store even if its just to look around...so many items. 💝

Love every item I have ever found at this gem of a place!

We had so much fun walking around the facility. The staff was very helpful and were able to answer questions about the items for us. Wish we would have checked them out sooner. We will definitely be back soon to check out the revolving stock.

Cool shop with great cats. I wish there was more variety in items, but the pieces they have are unique and well taken care of. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and prices are reasonable. Great stop if you are renovating a house or looking to personalize a room.

Anything and everything for your older home can be found here. Everything! And there are a few beautiful friendly cats to enjoy while you shop.

Accidentally ended up here on a trip from MI to NY. It is AMAZING inside. The things they have there are awesome. The prices on these items are also very expensive so I would suggest not to bring small kids in there.

Bob and Jane have an amazing store. They have so many unique architectural antiques. Its almost like a museum of extraordinary artifacts.

This store is delightful. Whether you are looking for a specific piece of architecture or just browsing as I was, there is something here. There are hundreds of old doors, cases full of old-fashioned hardware and door knobs, and a room full of railing posts. Also tons of antique sinks and even quite a few bathtubs. More old register covers than I have seen in one spot as well as pieces of antique trim fill the building alongside your normal antiques like pottery and furniture. There are also some friendly resident felines, as noted by the sign on the front door. :)

Not your everyday antique store!! Exceptional selection of historic artifacts for home restoration projects!! Highly recommend!! 😊

Having previously been a very vocal advocate of this place (even to the point of bringing people to see it), sadly I have to retract my support.Roughly 9 months ago I purchased a very large, rather expensive pocket door. I saw termite damage on the bottom & commented on it at the time, but I thought it was limited to just that spot. I did not inspect thoroughly enough, however. The project I purchased it for was extensive & I had a delay (the birth of a child will do that), but I stored it on blocks with care. Finally, I got to the part where I would hang the door. In cleaning it, I actually punched two holes through it due to MUCH more extensive termite damage than I had assumed.I contacted the company to seek an exchange. The best they would offer was half off a new door (about $350). We reluctantly offered up to $200, but were refused. Note that they still had the same doors now that they did 9 months ago, so this isnt a hot item flying out the door on a common basis.While they carry an array of really interesting stuff, make certain to inspect your purchase with a magnifying glass & be prepared to eat your investment. As for me, that will be my last trip to their shop & Ill also be telling everyone I know: BUYER BEWARE!Update: In response to the owner, the termite damage on the bottom WAS noted & discussed. It was why I contemplated one of their other doors. Whats more, the person loading the door actually broke off a piece of the trim from the bottom (the upper right in the pictures) & commented on it specifically. So... No, that part is absolutely a lie on their part.Further, I have pest control come in as a preventative measure. Since we had some damage long before we occupied the house, that seemed like a wise move. No active termite tunnels were found in our home nor in the door.Again, I loved this place before. Only use them if youre absolutely willing to eat your investment.

The owners are delightful, they knew us by face after visiting only a few times! In their spare time away from the shop, they haunt auctions at some of the most beautiful mansions to salvage items for the store. They also rescue lost and abused kitties who are given run of the place, showcasing the stunning antiques wonderfully.If you plan to shop at this unique establishment best bring a healthy line of credit as the artifacts are steeply priced, however, this is not your normal antique shop...it is truly one-of-a-kind.

Fantastic array of beautiful salvaged items. On pricey side with some over the top. Nonetheless the type of items are unique and offer a fun excursion.

Very interesting items, however the building smells of cat urine. The smell is over welling. Could not wait to get outside to fresh air. Just so u know Im a cat lover, but this was awful.

A lot of old stuff. Helpful staff.Did not notice an overwhelming odor of cat urine (cat rescuers) as some reported. No refunds. Exchanges only, so buy carefully or get it in writing.

It was nice to look around. Nice people. Interesting things. A bit pricey!

Avoid this place. I contacted Architectural Artifacts about removing and buying items in a home I recently purchased. They were also going to work on buying a few pieces for me. Their communication skills were definitely lacking. I attempted to contact them via email and phone several times to find out the exact plan after I met with them. They were rude and constantly telling me conflicting stories. They made many promises they did not keep. I delayed projects in my home due to them which cost me both time and money. Bob and Jane Cairl, the owners, do not respect their clients or people in general. They seemed like genuinely nice people when I first met them, but do not be deceived! Stay away at all cost!

Best of the best ! Architecturel details for your home.

Very cool place. Lots of really interesting stuff, decent prices for what ya get too. Love coming here when Im in town.

I wish I had checked this place out when we started working on our historic home! This place is huge and very well organized, with a ton of treasures to be found. MASSIVE selection of vintage / antique doors, bathroom equipment, knobs and handles and everything you need if youre missing one special piece in your cool old home! One trip wasnt enough to see everything. The owner we spoke to was very friendly and knowledgeable as well, just a delightful experience overall.I had overheard on a few occasions people complaining about the prices here which put me off for the longest time, but now that Ive stopped in, I regret listening to those people - This is not a thrift store, dont expect thrift store prices! I thought the prices were extremely fair for what this is; A huge and carefully procured collection of hard to find specific items for your old home, which youre unlikely to find anywhere else. Id be happy to pay the prices theyre asking, and am excited to come back with measurements and pictures to find some important pieces my home needs, particularly some spindles for my staircase (as they had an entire ROOM full!)Id DEFINITELY recommend you check this place out!

I actually thought that it was a great place to shop. It had everything imaginable but....the warehouse smelled strongly of cat urine and I couldnt stand the strong odor throughout so i left without buying anything. Its a shame because the people there are very friendly and I really wanted to shop but the smell was very unpleasant.

Very much appreciate the help while searching for antique window latches. Well organized shop, best in the region.

Always an interesting visit.

Love this place. Terrific variety and prices are fair.

Fun to look around. Lots of neat items.

Very nice place to find older things at a reasonable price.

A unique experience...owner is great...love their cats

Owners were very friendly. Great place if your looking for something for your home
