A well-designed space isn’t about following trends—it’s about creating a home that feels collected over time. Whether it’s a 19th-century cabinet still wearing its original paint, a rustic farm table built to withstand another century of gatherings, or salvaged architectural elements that bring history into a modern home, we believe these pieces elevate a space in a way that new items simply cannot. 

At East End Salvage, we are passionate about uncovering and preserving these details: the way hand-hewn wood has been worn smooth over centuries, the way old paint crackles naturally, and the subtle imperfections that make each item unique. We value original finishes, hand-carved craftsmanship, and authentic materials that speak to a piece’s history. 

I’m Kaci, and together with my husband Robert, my mother Luann, and my talented friend Annaliese, we curate and sell beautiful European antiques and architectural salvage. Our journey into the world of antiques began with a passion for design and a belief that old pieces bring character and elegance to modern homes.

Fun fact: This is Robert and my third small business venture together! After earning my bachelor’s degree in interior design, we launched a successful decorative painting business in our 20s. In our 30s, we operated a retail store and a farm-to-table restaurant—Robert is a classically trained chef! We’ve always had a passion for creating unique experiences. Luann, our retail expert, taught me everything I know; my “after-school program” as a child involved spending time in the gift wrap room of her luxury home goods store. Additionally, Annaliese brings her styling expertise and love of history to the team, diving deep into the stories behind our pieces.

We believe in the importance of restoring and appreciating what’s already out there rather than contributing to the mass production of new items. Our name, East End Salvage, pays homage to our historic building in McKinney, TX, where we’ve unearthed a treasure trove of stories and history.

We also want to give a shoutout to our amazing restoration team, Megan and Kris, who meticulously restore each antique to make them take-home ready, ensuring you receive pieces that not only look beautiful but are also in impeccable condition.

At East End Salvage, we curate a collection of one-of-a-kind antiques, focusing on authenticity, quality, and character. We can’t wait to share our journey with you and inspire you to incorporate timeless pieces into your home.

Thank you for joining us! We’re thrilled to have you along for this adventure.
