Original Newell from 1869

Turned Newel Post – 1869 Original

“The Victorian Bouncer”

Step right up (literally) with this hunk of hand-turned history. This newel post has been standing guard since 1869, watching generations huff, puff, and curse their way up the stairs.

  • From Hinsdale’s historic William Whitney House (aka “Hallmark House”)

  • Solid wood, gorgeously turned, full of old-house gravitas

  • Has that timeworn patina that Restoration Hardware has been trying (and failing) to fake for decades

  • Minimum Asking Price: $325 including buyer’s premium

  • Location: Hinsdale, IL

  • Availability: Now

  • Measurements: 8" x 42"

If your staircase feels naked, let this 1869 beauty dress it up with 150+ years of architectural swagger. It’s not just a post—it’s the stairway’s mic drop.
