This handpainted, antique roofing slate will welcome friends in the fall with a pumpkin and an arrangement of sunflowers. Painted in acrylics, protected with several coats of exterior sealer and tied with super strong synthetic leather. Most of my slates are reclaimed from roofs of barns, houses, and churches from New England and Upstate New York. After being exposed to the elements for over 100 years, each slate is unique showing slight variations in shade, color and texture with imperfections, uneven edges and corners. The uniqueness of each slate enhances its character and appeal. The slate pictured is the exact one that you will receive if you purchase it. I hand cut each slate and punch holes using an antique slate cutter that is dated 1892. I have 40 years of experience painting on slate and take great pride in providing a high quality, artistically designed product. Because most slates are personalized, I cannot accept returns. However, I want to be sure that you are happy with your purchase so if you have a concern, please feel free to contact me.
