Below are several examples of customers who

    Refinished it...



This 1950's THOMASVILLE chest and dresser are built like Sherman tanks with magnificent construction and incredible style and design. The tall chest has a separated step back chest on chest accent - and both pieces have very pronounced and unusual CONCAVE forms.

The original painted finish is in desperate condition and the handles have lost all the original patina down to the bare metal.

Our customers, a young couple who love dark wood grains, asked if we could strip the dresser, stain it a dark walnut, lacquer it with multiple coats of semi gloss and plate the handles with a burnished nickel - all for under $1000.

        "OF COURSE!" we said.

(And that included the price of the dresser)


Now, had they wanted it lacquered in CREAM or JET BLACK, the price would have only been $1500.

We have nearly 100 Chests, Dressers and Credenzas to choose from. Many already in perfect condition.

CARY SMITH couldn't stand the idea of paying big bucks for a new TV stand and entertainment center. Everything she looked at was too industrial, newish looking or had too much glass and laminated woods. When she at first saw this 1960 all wood dresser base, she loved it but didn't need the drawers. It was high and long and had what appeared to be exotic burls and veneers, but they were so lightly stained, they were hardly noticeable.

After several visits to the store, she decided to acquire it and lacquer it black - but she hated to cover the burls. So we suggested to lacquer only the casing in black and re-stain the burls a darker stain. At the very least, she could always lacquer the cabinet black at a later date. Needless to say, when she saw the finished product, it was clear the right decision was made. The drawers were cut down to accommodate her DVD player and her cable box, and the right drawers were replaced with an adjustable shelf for her children's games.

Total cost including the furniture - less than $2000.
