ABOUT ANTIGUA DÉCOR!
Antigua Furniture Guild is just that - a union of the most talented carpenters, wood carvers and turners, gilders, leather craftsmen, blacksmiths, and finishers - building high quality, authentic Spanish Colonial Furniture Reproductions, Carved Cabinets, and Spanish Lighting & Hardware. We began in Peru in 1988 in search of 17th and 18th century Antiques – One-of-kind Carved Furniture, Architectural pieces, Accessories & Hardware. Over the years, we acquired and restored thousands of Antique Spanish Colonial pieces handed down from generation to generation from original Hacienda families and Colonial town’s people from all over Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador. The most spectacular pieces came from Cusco, Peru which was the Center-of-Arts of South America. Masters from Spain and Italy were brought in to train local craftsmen in the techniques of carving, gilding, silver and ironwork. Starting in 1996, we began to manufacture Rawhide Parchment Lampshades, then later, Spanish Lighting and now Spanish Hardware, Carved Cabinets and Unique Fireplace Screens. We now have 5 Spanish Colonial Furniture Lines as well as Carved Frames, Cabinets, Hardware, Ironwork, Lighting, and Parchment Lampshades lines, each with their own Catalog. |
