Antique Lighting and House Parts

Rescued from History. Ready for Your Home.

Some things were built to last a hundred years. They just need someone to find them.

Vintporium is an architectural salvage shop specializing in restored antique lighting fixtures, vintage pendant lights, and period architectural hardware. Every piece — from hand-painted Art Deco ceiling lights to 1950s semi-flush fixtures and Victorian sconces — is professionally rewired, refinished, and ready to install.

Can't find the original? Build it yourself. Our Bricolage lighting parts collection stocks everything you need: cloth cord pendant kits, UNO shade fitters, canopies, sockets, and vintage brass and bronze hardware — the same materials used when these fixtures were first made.

Whether you're restoring a Craftsman bungalow, furnishing a farmhouse kitchen, finishing an industrial loft, or replacing a builder-grade fixture that was never good enough — Vintporium has the antique lighting that belongs in your home.

Find Your Part

Search our catalog by part, fitter size, or fixture type — try “2 1/4 shade”, “mogul socket”, or “sash lock”.

Need help choosing or fixing a part? Our Salvage Knowledge Library draws on Vintporium’s work since 2008 to help you identify what you have, pick the right part, or plan your own repair.

 

Can't Find the Part?

Looking for a matching sconce, a replacement shade, or an odd-sized fitter? Send us a photo and measurements. A large portion of our inventory is uncataloged. Many of the doors, windows, fireplace surrounds, bath fixtures, and architectural pieces in the yard never make it to the website. If you don't see it online, that doesn't mean we don't have it.

The Vintporium Heritage Standard

The Heritage Standard

Restored by hand, one at a time. Old wire out. New wire rated for present use, sound sockets, and grounding where the fixture allows. The body, glass, finish, and the marks it earned stay. Every fixture is tested on the bench before it leaves the shop.

About the Founder

Joe Golda has run Vintporium from his workshop in San José since 2008. He sources the pieces, pulls the old wiring, rewires them, finishes them by hand, and packs them himself. One person, one bench, one standard. Every fixture is tested — each socket, each switch — before it ships. What's original is called original. What's new is called new. We call this commitment to candor and craft our Heritage Standard.
