Know before you buy
No, because these are salvaged vintage pieces, each number features unique variations in size, font, and pigmentation. While they average 4x4 inches, you should expect slight differences in character and finish between individual pieces.
These numbers do not come with pre-drilled holes or mounting hardware. Depending on your wall surface, you will likely need to use a high-quality exterior-grade construction adhesive or a specialized mounting bracket to secure them.
As authentic vintage clay pieces, they are naturally durable, but they have not been treated with modern sealants. If you live in an area with harsh freeze-thaw cycles or extreme moisture, you may want to apply a clear masonry sealer to protect the material over time.
Because these are salvaged items, we cannot guarantee specific font styles or color shades. Each number is sold individually based on available stock, which is part of the charm of sourcing architectural salvage.
These are non-illuminated clay numbers. To ensure visibility after dark, we recommend installing them in a well-lit area or positioning a small exterior light fixture nearby.
