Amber Homes Brings Back Timeless Style with Restored Vintage Ceiling Fans

LOS ALTOS, CA – October 26, 2023 – Amber Homes LLC, a family-owned business nestled in the heart of Silicon Valley (201 Silvia Ct, Los Altos, CA 94024-3859, 215-650-1454), is making waves with its unique offering: beautifully restored vintage ceiling fans. In a world obsessed with the latest trends, Amber Homes is tapping into a desire for character, quality, and a touch of nostalgia. Forget those mass-produced fans from big box stores. Amber Homes isn’t selling fans; they’re offering pieces of history, carefully brought back to life. The company, founded on a passion for antique restoration and design, sources genuine vintage ceiling fans – often from estate sales, architectural salvage yards, and private collections across the country. “We saw a gap in the market,” explains owner Sarah Miller. “People are tired of things that feel disposable. They want something with a story, something that’s built to last. And let’s be honest, these old fans just look cooler!” More Than Just a Fan – It’s a Statement Amber Homes isn’t just slapping a new coat of paint on these relics. Each fan undergoes a meticulous restoration process. The team disassembles every component, cleans it thoroughly, repairs or replaces any worn or damaged parts, and then carefully reassembles the fan. This includes: Motor Overhaul: The heart of any good fan, the motors are cleaned, lubricated, and tested to ensure smooth, quiet operation. They replace any failing components – capacitors, windings, anything that’s causing trouble. Blade Restoration: Wooden blades are sanded, stained, or repainted to their original glory, or customized to match the buyer’s décor. Amber Homes also offers blade replacement if originals are too damaged. They carefully balance each blade for wobble-free operation. Hardware Polishing/Replacement: Original hardware is polished to a shine. If pieces are missing or beyond repair, they source or fabricate replacements that are as close to the original as possible. Rewiring with Modern Safety: While retaining the fan’s vintage aesthetic, Amber Homes meticulously rewires each fan with modern, safety-certified wiring and components. This ensures that the fan is not only beautiful but also safe to use in a modern home. Optional Upgrades: Want to add a remote control? A dimmer switch? Amber Homes can handle it. They’re happy to customize fans to meet the specific needs of their customers. “We aim for authenticity,” Sarah says. “We want to preserve the character of the fan, but also make sure it’s something people can enjoy for years to come.” Why Vintage? Beyond the Aesthetics The appeal of vintage ceiling fans goes beyond just looks. Many argue that older fans are simply built better than their modern counterparts. “These fans were made when quality was paramount,” explains technician Mark Johnson. “They used heavier-gauge steel, better materials, and more robust construction techniques. A well-maintained vintage fan can easily last another 50 years, while a lot of modern fans are lucky to make it past a decade.” There’s also an environmental benefit. By restoring and reusing vintage fans, Amber Homes is diverting waste from landfills and reducing the demand for new manufacturing. A Fan for Every Style Amber Homes’ collection spans a wide range of styles and eras, from Art Deco beauties with intricate detailing to sleek mid-century modern designs. They offer: Art Deco Fans (1920s-1930s): Characterized by geometric shapes, rich colors, and opulent detailing. These fans are perfect for adding a touch of glamour to any room. Mid-Century Modern Fans (1940s-1960s): Known for their clean lines, minimalist designs, and organic shapes. These fans are a great choice for those who prefer a more understated aesthetic. Rustic & Farmhouse Fans (Early 20th Century): Often featuring wooden blades and wrought iron detailing, these fans evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia. Transitional & Classic Styles: Amber Homes also restores fans that fall into more timeless categories, suitable for a wide range of decorating schemes.
