United Mid Century Modern Dresser...


Got this vintage very wide mid century modern 
dresser in a month ago.  It had damage on top.  
I knew it was going to be trouble getting it out.
It was.  But it looks better than it did when we stripped the top.
Before above.
After below.


I matched the stain almost exact.  Which I thought was 
going to be the hardest part.  Turned out it was the easiest! 
Fully restored the top.  Cleaned up the rest.


Then sealed everything in a semi gloss sprayed sealer.


Made by United.  This brand is by far the best vintage 
brand I noticed.  The quality is amazing.
Everything is solid wood.  They usually make longer
dressers too.  This one is one of the longer ones.
At 74” wide.


Wood handles on cabinet doors and middle drawers.



The middle drawers are wide with smaller drawers 
on the ends behind the gorgeous cabinet doors.


The top grain is so beautiful.  The spot is still on the top.
But it’s not as bad as it was.  It kinda goes with all 
the natural wood patterns.



Has a very unique curved front design.  



Sits on a wood frame with slayed out legs.




Awesome curved sides with thick long hinge
for the cabinet doors.

Antique Buffet Redesigned to Modern....


I had this antique french buffet for two years in 
my inventory.  It had a hutch that was removable.
I’ll be making that into a stand alone shelf soon.
Before above and below.


Tons of cabinet space!



Removed the green felt boards from drawers on top.




We removed the french hardware.  I wanted this
to be look more modern farmhouse.  


Sealed in all the older hardware holes, pinholes, 
all the knick and dents we could see.


Stripped the top.


I painted it in lamp black by general finishes milk paint.





Purchased new modern knobs.  These are my absolute 
favorite knobs!  











Sealed in semi gloss sealer.
