I wanted to make this piece as a show stopper and carefully chose the colours for it. I wanted it to be true talking point and centre of attention to the room. I chose electric blue colour for the outside with bright raspberry colour on the inside. 2 bright and bold colours what should never work together - really works on this piece. Its phenomenal colour combination that this beautiful cabinet can take.
I wanted to show with this piece that painted antiques could work with a modern twist. On the outside cabinet blue colour was painted to give texture and naturally aged effect, but on the inside I painted with smooth finish and sleek lines truly highlinghting how antique finish meets modern sleek looks.
I used black wax to highlight beautiful carvings and make them pop out using shadding of black wax. I added a touch of gold to the carvings, but not to much to take away from the colour combination I used.
Cabinet is in perfect condition and sturdy, comes in two parts for an easy transportation. Made from solid oak and comes with original brass hinges and 4 keys in fully working order. Top half comes 2 toughened glass shelves. Beautiful glass fronted doors and sides also made from glass which makes the cabinet even more interesing even if you sit to the side of it. Between the glass doors you also have glass fronted middle and curvy glass details just above the doors.
Bottom of the cabinet with heavily carved doors and 1 shelf inside, its no middle separation in the bottom half which optimises the storage.
Cabinet stands on heavilly carved Queen Anne legs, top of the cabinet is so grand it reminds me peacock tail.
Measures:
H x 205cm, W x 125cm, D x 45cm
As mentioned before top sits on the bottom half and its easy for the transport.

"They are beautiful. 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".

Customer Reviews
Firstly, the customer service from the seller was above and beyond. In fact she felt like a friend. The delivery was excellent, all updates were given. The drawers arrived very well packaged. On inspection I was very happy. Lovely touch with the spare paint, for any future scratches and the chocolates. An excellent seller.
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. Information from David's background on the cabinet at collection allowed us to source original chemist and even found a card of the original chemist. Sharon and Gavin Hunt.
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. Thank you Mandy.
I purchased a sowing table from you in April for my sisters birthday but wanted to send you photos when she had planted some flowers. It does look impressive.
I’m still faffing with the cabinet, getting it the right place in our lounge. Everyone absolutely loves it, my mom and sister in particular, even my 10 year old son!
