20th century oak sideboard
Fresh out of restoration from an unattractive chocolate colour with tiny steel handles to this.
We rarely strip, but in this case nothing to save, so hand strip, no sanding, mix a bitumen based stain, re polish, cut back and built a wax finish.

A recent private restoration job.
Beautiful last quarter 19th century French oak rotating desk chairThe last photo shows before restoration.
Several patches and re carving, re gluing, removed the later varnished dark surface to reveal a very red raw oak.
Refused to sand or bleach, made up a green base stain that removed much of the red, a very old trick.
Re french polished, coloured in repairs, cut back and wax finished.
Craig Howell, upholsterer, removed the original pressed leather seat and reupholstered the chair to finish this wonderful job.
Eddie, cabinet maker, completed the repairs and carving. Also the ball bearings lubricated and running well.

French figured Elm, two plank Farmhouse table with six English Elm country Hepplewhite dining chairs
Mixing antiques from different parts of the world can work very well. Not all styles mix well, but 18th and 19th century English and French furniture mixed very well.
Six from a harlequin set of eight, last quarter 18th century English elm country Hepplewhite dining chairs, with a handsome first quarter 19th century French figured elm, two plank farmhouse table.
Absolutely beautiful. Classic lines with unequalled style, well that’s my opinion.
Note: The chairs appear more red in the photos
