At Historic Decorative Materials, a division of Pavé Tile, Wood & Stone, Inc., we specialize in reclaimed French oak flooring, antique French limestone & Belgian bluestone flooring, and French reclaimed terra cotta floors—premium European flooring materials sourced for luxury homes, historic restorations, and architectural design projects. Since 2000, we have built trusted relationships with Europe’s finest sawmills, quarries, and artisans to offer authentic reclaimed floors, aged French limestone, antiqued oak planks, and hand-painted Delft tiles that embody true European craftsmanship.
Our by-appointment designer showroom and private video appointments provide architects, designers, and homeowners a private, curated experience with our collections—materials defined by provenance, patina, and the timeless elegance of French, Belgian, English, and Italian design.
Historic Decorative Materials was founded by François and Emmi Micallef, whose combined backgrounds in fine art and European architecture shape the heart of the company. François, born and raised in the South of France, personally travels across France, Belgium, England and Italy to source reclaimed French limestone, wide-plank French oak floors, and antique French terra cotta tiles, selecting materials for quality, beauty, authenticity, durability, and historic character.
Emmi Micallef, a fine artist, brings classical painting into architectural design through her line of hand-painted Delft and decorative tiles, inspired by 17th-century Dutch blue ceramics and Monet’s kitchen tiles in Giverny. Together, they have created one of the most respected collections of European reclaimed flooring and artisanal tiles in North America.
