reclaimed brick
Secondhand building block
Reclaimed brick is brick salvaged from demolished buildings and reused in new construction.
The weathered appearance and irregular coloring are prized for aesthetic reasons—new brick can look too uniform.
Reclaimed brick also appeals to environmental concerns about waste and embodied energy.
The fireplace was built with reclaimed brick from an old textile mill.
