I envy you! That's beautiful, and your floors are wonderful!
Thanks! The floors from what I can tell are stained, most likely their coloring was more that of maple. Most if not all of the painted trim was all the same "maple" wood.
About six months ago we purchased our home, built somewhere between 1880-1890 (give or take). The style of our home is "vernacular second empire."
On the first floor there are two decortive fireplaces, and a functional 3rd. As for the tile on the decortive fireplace, from what I understand are called "Cambridge Tile." What else do you folks know about them? They are in great condition, and I am curious to what they might be worth. I really have no plans to remove such a important fixture to such an historic home.
