  • Water stains, oil stains, and flaking, oh my! I bought these pretty rough vintage "night tables" from FB marketplace. But these are actually the two pedestals of a vanity that was disassembled at one point. There are a ton of finish issues; there's no denying this needs a full refinish.
    I needed to fully strip these, patch some veneer, get rid of the water stains, stain, tone, seal, and polish. But nearly a week later, these are UNBELIEVABLE!

      There are some things that should absolutely be modernized to ensure they remain in use. Designers back then made mistakes too. But there are also some pieces, like these, that just look SO much better refreshed, and as the designer intended.

I am 77 years old and I remember this type of furniture in my Grandmother's home. However, her brand new furniture didn't come anywhere near the beautiful finish you gave them!

Your skill at matching the color and wood grain, was in evidence once again. Absolutely beautiful work. I’m sure you will agree, that this wouldn’t have come out as well, without your helper.

    I had a vanity like this when I was a kid. This was back in the 1970's, and it was not considered vintage or antique at the time. It was considered 'old and outdated.' But, during the time I spent with that particular piece, I fell in love with art deco furniture because of the curvilinear design and the gorgeous veneers and inlaid wood that so many examples from that era have. You've done a beautiful job of bringing these two back to their former glory. It was a real pleasure to watch!

    • @TranscendFurnitureGallery
      @TranscendFurnitureGallery  Před rokem

      I have to disagree with that as a general statement. Some things should definitely be restored. But much like modern day designers, olden day designers sometimes got things wrong. Or the items were not taken care of properly and are destroyed. Or just aren’t practical anymore and end up in landfills. Being useful, for me, sometimes trumps being fully restored. So I consider each piece individually, rather than the idea that every single piece of mediocre furniture needs restoration. THESE pieces though- these are a no-brainer for me. That wood grain is out of this world!

    The final reveal actually brought tears to my eyes. I've done furniture refurbishing and repair and have never painted a single piece. I get so involved in what I'm doing I sometimes feel that the wood is telling me what it wants to be. I love working with wood. I greatly appreciate what you do and the care and skill involved. Thank you for what you do and for sharing with us.

    This couldn’t have come at a better time. I am working on an art deco set of bedside tables converted from a vanity. It was in such bad shape it would have ended up at the landfill. Unfortunately this vanity was nailed together, not screwed in place. So it needed a LOT of filler and sanding. I am disabled so I can only work on this for a very short time before I have to stop. That being said, you did an amazing job and I learned a lot from the video. So when I get to the point of refinishing I will use the ideas I picked up from you. Cant wait for the next video!
