They are family heirlooms passed down to our client who wanted them restored for a family member's new DC apartment. When they arrived, the finish was completely worn in some areas. They have very beautiful veneer & inlay but it is very thin and fragile. There were some missing veneers in a few areas as well. From the start, we knew that these pieces needed some extra care... After hand stripping the finish, cleaning and sanding, you could really see the beauty of the grain. After showing a few stain options, our client decided to go with a beautiful Mahogany finish which really brought out the depth of the wood and the contrasting tones in grain. After applying the sealer and sanding it down, we had a smooth, even surface that was ready for the topcoat. We used a high-quality non-yellowing lacquer. We used 3 coats on these pieces to be sure they had the protection they needed. The results turned out fantastic.

↓Click "Read More" to see Pictures ↓This dresser and vanity set was handbuilt by our client's grandfather and we were honored that she trusted us to refinish them. After stripping, sanding and cleaning these pieces, the bare wood looked amazing and the craftsmanship was apparent. The beautiful symmetrical grain was beautifully matched by the builder and we were very impressed. The veneer was bubbling in some areas and missing in others but we were able to replace the missing pieces, and steam and glue the loose pieces. A Golden Oak stain was chosen and it turned out great on the Walnut wood. You can really see the highs and lows of the grain now. The client wanted to change the hardware to something different. We're looking forward to seeing what they choose.
