Then watercoloring the damages out.
Wonderful outcome.

Masons on Oak, Elm, Chestnut, Walnut, Fruitwoods & Country Furniture
When dressing the 16th – 19th century English and European Oak,
the first thing I think of is Masons Ironstone. They blend so well together.
A lot blends with Country furniture, Japanese Imari, English or French Green Majolica,
Pewter, Stoneware, Parian Ware, Antique and Contemporary Glass, Modern Ceramics,
Australian Pottery, Treen etc.
But, as I said, Masons are like wearing classic fashion items, they always look right.
Like the Little Black Dress, Cashmere Jumper or Black Blazer,
Single Breasted tailored Suit.
Timeless.
1686 – 1986
Notice how even a retro made semi Chippendale style dining chair can match so well with a striking piece of art 300 years older.
Contemporary framing can completely change the look of a copper engraving, painting, lithograph, even old photos. It’s not hard.
These chairs were unattractive, dark and had shocking patterned upholstery.
Once again, it’s not too hard to improve a chair.
I have these in a window display this week.
Quite eye catching, along with the descriptions of both.
As always it’s important to create interesting window displays
