Broyhill Mid Century Modern Highboy Dresser....



Restored this vintage 1967 Broyhill 
Mid Century Modern Highboy Dresser.
It's from the Accent line.  Rare and hard to 
find piece/  I was going to just clean it up.
Before above and below.


But it had more damage than I thought.  
A clean up wouldn't have helped at all.
If it was just minor finish issues, yeah a clean up would work.
But chipped veneer and large chips..we had to restore.



So, I decided to do a full restoration on it.
We repaired all the damaged areas.
Missing veneer, bent split top edges.
Worn finish on top.
Stripped after repaired.








Then I stained it in dark walnut.




Painted hardware in gold because I didn't 
like the silver original color.  Gold just pops
against dark walnut.






Sealed in a semi gloss water based sprayed 
sealer.






Purchased new gold screws to match the gold.
Remember the originals where silver.




SOLD!

Black Two Toned Table Drawers....


Well we found this old antique table with
drawers.  Top was warped with veneer damage.
We peeled off the top veneer and left it alone.
Sanded everything else.  
Before below.


I painted it in general finishes lamp black.


I just couldn't paint over that beautiful
wood pattern on the drawers.
So, I left it original and refinished it in 
general finishes antique cherry.


Distressed edges on the table body.



Sealed everything in a semi gloss sealer.







I aged the hardware.







Love!  My goodness this came out fantastic!

Phenix Art Deco Dresser....


Had this very rare Phenix Furniture art deco 
dresser for 2 1/2 years in my inventory.
So since it hadn't sold i decided to paint it in 
my own design.  This is very well made and has the thickest
veneer I've ever encountered.  It needed extensive repair.
The inside shelves where the drawers slide out on
have some very rare roller balls that help
the drawers just slide out like butter.  Plus the drawer
 slides are super rare also, we've never seen them before.
John had to make one as one was missing out of some metal.
He did a fantastic job. So, Phenix makes very good quality furniture. 
Here is the before below.


Repaired and sanded down everything.
Primed it, then painted it in mannequin cream
by benjamin moore.  


Added new hardware and painted it gold.


Done in a semi gloss finish.




I had to leave this beautiful veneer part alone.
Each piece was cut to make it look like that.
Look at that detail!  It was just too beautiful.
Plus I wanted to leave something original.



I think it brings the piece out some.  
Everything goes really well with the cream, gold,
and wood tone.

















I really love how this came out.  It was a beast to 
get done but we did it pretty quick as we worked together on it.
