The place is amazing and filled with a large variety of antique wood products that will spark your imagination, and the service was great. If you work with wood as a hobby or as a professional, you need to visit this place. You will not be disappointed.Henry Collins, Google Review
I just bought my new reclaimed wood floor from Real Antique Wood and I am absolutely thrilled with it ! Anthony and his team were wonderful to work with and explained everything to me and helped me through the whole process. My space doubles as a photo studio so choosing the right wood was very important to me, so I am so glad I found Anthony ! 10/10 experience for me – I can’t wait to work with them again!Celeste Sloman, Google Review
We had a great experience visiting the shop. We were able to walk through the yard and pick out exactly what we were looking for, which was an authentic piece of history to have in our home for a lifetime. Great addition to our home. Couldn’t be happier with the end result. The staff is friendly and creative. Thanks!Jason H.
A hidden gem. Old-world craftsmanship and antique wood make for a truly unique piece. I had a mantel built for my fireplace; can't wait to get it installed.Robyne Rasa, Google Review

I was in a few months back for some hard wood for a guitar I was building. Gary was great and got me onto some beautiful cherry wood ... Over the next couple of months I built guitar based on 1958 Fender Telecaster. It sounds great!! Wood has real soul and character. I will be back as I am now looking to build my next guitar project.Dave Peraino
My son Cole came in to purchase some walnut for a table he was going to make. Wanted to share a few images with you!Tom Huetz
"Fantastic customer service, gorgeous work, accommodating and extremely pleasant and friendly staff! I needed a shelf made for an accent wall I was working on. I saw the workmanship was exceptional in their online pics and had to check it out. I needed a 2 tone 7inx12ft piece of wood. We had our piece picked out and ordered within 30 mins after the owner took my boyfriend and I through all our options in the warehouse. Got to speak with Anthony who designed our piece. We are blown away, 2 weeks for delivery and I can’t get over how perfect the piece is. Can’t wait to go back for my floors!"

"The West Orange downtown alliance recommends Real Antique Wood to our retailers for facade and store design projects. They have worked with us to promote using recycled wood to give our historic Main Street corridor a UNIQUE flavor. The owners, Lisa and Gary, and staff are dedicated, knowledgeable, crafters, with a huge inventory of specialty woods of all types."

“Real Antique wood is AWESOME. Lisa was fantastic during our purchase process of beautiful reclaimed barn wood siding. Everything that was promised was delivered. Anthony was awesome as well. The entire process was easy as can be. Tips and ideas were provided that made our installation so easy. We redid a powder room and the wall is the focal point, everyone loves it. We’ve sent my in-laws to them and will send everyone looking for friendly quality advice, service, and product.”

"From the second I walked into Real Antique Wood I was blown away!! The hospitality from Gary and Lisa was as if I known them for 100 years! I was treated like family! How about royalty! I received the grand tour of the showroom, the work shop, and the inventory! I said to Gary numerous times, “You know what this place does... It puts a smile on your face!!!” If you’re looking for anything related to antique & reclaimed woods, barn finds, shiplap, doors, incredible signage, one of a kind tables & of course wood flooring this is the place! It’s worth the trip to just visit but I guarantee when you leave you’re going to try and figure out what you can buy for your home or job site so you can get back there ASAP!! Keep up the excellent work! "

Real Antique Wood is the real deal. After months and months of hoping and waiting, my husband and I finally made our way to 31 Cordier for a “site visit”. I had my imaginations of what to expect, but what we found completely blew me away. Every single item in the store is reclaimed from old barns. Their reclaimed wood selection was expansive to say the least (I’m a bit of a wood enthusiast myself). However, the best part of our visit was an impromptu tour of the workshop courtesy of the friendliest business owner we’ve met yet, Lisa. I can honestly say that I didn’t want to leave the store.Anthony is a woodworking genius! I’m just going to leave it there!Real Antique Wood is a prime example of what makes this nation great; 100% made in the USA. I can’t wait to go back for some reclaimed wood for my next woodworking project.
