things. My 50+ year old trim is better than my sister's that is less than 10 years old.

My MIL lives in a 120+ year old sandstone house and it is SPECTACULAR in terms of room size, ceiling height, the wood walls, wood trim banisters and doors, lead and stained glass in the doors and some windows, etc. No one alive even does this stuff anymore.

P.S. Nothing better than the width of 100+ year old home staircases. Landings with stained glass windows.
