Early 1950s Mid century Modern Dresser in Two Tone...


Found this at a thrift store, it was missing some nipple knobs, 
the bottom front trim, and the drawers didn't open/close correctly.
We stripped it down to the raw wood.


Repaired all the missing veneer, fixed the issues on the drawers 
so they can open/close correctly, and added a trim to the 
bottom front.


Painted the drawers in fusion goddess ashwagandha.
Its a white with gray undertones, so a very light greige color.


Stained the body in american walnut.




Top coated everything in a flat sealer.



Painted the original handles in matte black.

Added new modern matte black knobs.



Bottom drawers are very deep.



Painted the black metal slats in matte black.





I'm loving this!

Before/After.

French Short Buffet in Clean Black....


I believe this had a hutch but, when we found it that was gone.


Had average damage from not
being taken good care of.  It could've been worst thought...
I've had worst.




Repaired all the cosmetic damage.
Sanded the outside down.


Painted it in fusion coal black.


No distress I wanted a clean look.


Kept hardware in original condition with its 
original patina.




Hardware is beautiful!



Kept the inside original.


Original felt ling in top drawer.




Looks so beautiful!

Before and after.
