Blue Upcycled Bureau
This newly refurbished bureau was in quite the state of disrepair when we collected it. Heading to landfill if we couldn't do something with it. But we managed, we managed to give this gorgeous bureau the makeover it deserved, and it now sits proudly as a beautiful deep blue writing desk ready for its new home.
To create this new look we used After Midnight by Frenchic, a beautiful deep blue with the added touch of dark wax to create its mystical appearance. Inside the desk, which pulls down and sits on two pull out rests, you will find a delicate storage space partially painted to contrast with the wood detail. You will find a leather desk, which has been repaired with a green leather colourant. You will see some slight wear and tear on the leather desk, but it is in a useable condition.
The upcycled writing bureau comes with a generous sized, lockable cupboard with one shelf, below the pull down desk that sits on two pull out rests. The desk has a lock, but no longer locks. Inside the desk you'll find two small drawers and 5 small storage spaces, perfect for filing notes and letters. The desk itself though slightly bowed due to its age and use over time, is still sturdy and perfectly functional.
So if you love a piece of furniture that has tell tale signs of a previous life, whilst adding a touch of vintage charm to your own home, then this is the perfect bureau for you.

"Fantastic website and customer service, cabinet as described and good quality, good value for money and regular communication contact from Upcite. The ethos behind the company is ethical and sustainable which is refreshing. Will definitely buy from this company again. Product furs in with our house restoration perfectly thank you".

"I was looking for a piece to stand next to a small ornate fireplace in our 1920’s build home and kept coming back to this lovely makeover, named ‘Grace’. I’m so delighted to have bought it. Mandy took time and care in delivering it and although she emphasised the fact it was an old piece I can only re-emphasise that that is exactly what I was looking for. It is testament to her skills that she has given ‘Grace’ a wonderful new lease of life. The stencilling on the drawers is top notch; the piece is painted beautifully - including the bits you wouldn’t normally see, which I prefer. The beautifully highlighted claw feet on the bottom of the piece are a real treat to look at, and my beady-eyed art tutor/’general expert on painted stuff’ agreed Mandys’ work is superb – sympathetic to the piece and to a high standard. I know I shall enjoy having Grace grace our home for many years".

"I don’t like to match furniture and love mish mash, quirky and odd looking things lol. I absolutely love them. My house is 203 years old and is grade II listed. I think it makes an old cottage come alive and puts a modern twist on it. I love furniture that tells a story or gets people talking at a house party".
