Just a hint of green and the slight hint of gilding on the hardware was the order for this childhood dresser that had seen much better days when I received it.

I loved this unique antique piece when I acquired it, but it was in terrible shape with missing veneer and failed finish. Lots of TLC and professional processes brought this back to life.

The original dark stain of this piece was hiding its gorgeous curves and decorative molding. Custom painted in a neutral light taupe color with slight gilding on the decorative elements - now destined for the bedroom in client's new home.

Picture this with solid dark brown stain - the features were lost until the decorative elements, legs and top were stripped, a graphite wash applied, and the hardware cleaned and polished! Now a showstopper!

Antique small server featuring a refinished top (now shows the beautiful wood grain!), two-tone steel gray paint, distressed edges and raised stencil.

Soft floral and text collage make this piece interesting.

From dark brown to deep rich black, this piece now takes center stage.

Restaining and sealing now assures this piece is not affected by the elements on this open porch
