Historic Decorative Materials is an e-commerce site that is meant as a tool to purchase on-line reclaimed as well as highly crafted European surfaces. Drawing inspiration from historical reference, Emmi Micallef's original hand painted decorative tiles compliment HDM's reclaimed tile, brick, wood and stone surfaces.  Her Delft Tile Collection, featured below, is just one of four collections, with several more to come. Sharing a partnership with it's parent company, Pavé Tile, Wood & Stone, Inc., a  by-appointment showroom is available to the trade and homeowners to view and design from Pavé's showroom's extraordinary French and Belgian tile, wood, brick and stone installations. As an artist, Emmi uses the basic rules of fine painting - color/tone, light value and the saturation scale within the materials themselves and in relation to a client's home, furniture and artwork - to achieve a beautiful balance of texture, color and light throughout the theme of the home.   To register for Trade Pricing, please click here. 

Historic Decorative Materials NEW YouTube Channel is the venue to view and experience their antique and aged tile, brick, wood and stone flooring through video. Below, enjoy learning about their Kings of France 18th Century French Oak Flooring in Charcoal. A grey wood floor that is a symphony of light and dark charcoal grays with oak grey undertones. Neither a stain nor an oil, these gray wood floors are achieved through an oxidation process that works with the tannins of the French oak - literally changing the composition of the wood fibers.
