More Distressed Ebony

Bottom, below...This is (was) a Stanley manufactured pine, chestnut- stained dresser. My customer explained that it was an early acquisition for she and her husband. Now, in its new polished, distressed ebony skin it promises a brand new experience. This handsome dresser is reeeeely looking forward (it told me so!) to going home.

Is this an fun adventure or what!

But then here is an entirely different experience. And these two are right here in the shop together.

My customer brought this little 1900's gem in virtual pieces. Once I got into it I began to realize it has been, may I say, the recipient of organ doners. It's top is different generation than the case and the top drawer appears to be of different side and back materials than the drawers below it. Nevertheless, she remains and is an attractive antique, for sure--albeit a bit schizophrenic?

Ok, that is WoodTalkin for today. Listen... because your furniture  has a story of its own to tell you.

CONTEMPORARY

Yes, the shop sees more than antiques. This is a good example of some fun challenges we get to face. In this case we were asked to change the look of some great furniture, Stanley
..Lane...and others.

Our customer wants an distressed ebony look...so that was the goal. Five pieces including a small wall shelf,  a pine dresser, and the legs and under-frame of a small overstuff  couch, all refinished to delight our customer.

That's Wood Talkin for today
