| this house is over 100 years old so some of the redwood trim was missing or damaged and needed to be replaced |

| Locally, none of these classic trim profiles were available off the shelf. I milled all my own replacement trim from vertical grain redwood for period authenticity that will last another 100 years |

| missing pendants on corbels |

| this winged pendant was over painted muting most of its detail so it was removed stripped and copied for other areas of the house that had this detailed wing missing |
