This beautiful writing bureau has been fully restored to a professional standard. Hand painted in organic furniture paint of a vibrant colour to bring it into the 21st Century as a modern working or studying area with ample storage space.

With barley twist legs, painted by hand and the solid oak wood protected using Osmo oil. This centre piece is not only stunning but perfectly functioning as a writing or study desk.

The environmentally friendly and extremely durable oil, shows off the fantastic solid oak panels and highlights the natural medullary rays in the grain of the oak wood.

Brand new solid brass hardware has been fitted all round which includes, escutcheon, lock, hinges and all drawer pulls adding to the exquisite finish.

Re finished in a 21st Century style the bureau has been given extra protection  against knocks, scuffs and spillages with a heavy duty durable varnish.

The drawers have been lined and painted on the inside with the outside waxed and eased to proved smooth opening and closing.

The lining paper depicts colourful passerine birds sitting in trees inspiring the main yellow paint colour. The pretty lining paper has also been given two coats of a clear matt varnish for protection when storing items in the drawers or using the desk area.

The inside has a modern twist. An open area exists to sit essentials or even place your favorite beverage when working.

"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".
