- Restored & Renovated October 2022 - OAKHAM BLUE HERON SIDEBOARD
THIS JACOBIAN STYLE SOLID OAK SIDEBOARD early 1920’s - 1930’s has been lovingly restored and enhanced to be displayed in any home. This luxurious sideboard steals the show on so many levels. It has exceptional craftmanship and is definitely built to last.
When this sideboard came to us, every inch of it was covered in the most awful, nasty thick white paint.
The whole sideboard, inside and out, was rigorously stripped and sanded back to reveal it’s most beautiful OAK hiding underneath. Afterwards some areas were painted in Fusion Mineral Paint and the other areas were then repeatedly oiled to enhance the beautiful natural grain.
-The painted ares received Fusion Mineral’s Paint - OAKHAM. All of the Gold detail were painted in Roberson Liquid Metal Gold. The inside of the cupboards and drawers I added a hint of colour, selectively chosen to compliment the Heron detail on the sides.
-Osmo Polyx Oil was used to help nourish and protect the raw wood, whilst also bringing the richness of the tones and the depth of the grain. This oil is water repellent and durable which makes it perfect for a piece of dining / living room furniture.
The sides have been prepared to host a unique design called “Golden Orient Blue Herons wading, created by AVALANA Design using beautifully painted watercolours, this golden sunrise landscape shows Great Blue Herons wading through a moodily lit lily pond, surrounded by golden green leaves. It is utterly divine, the more you look, the more detail you will see. It will become an instant focal point in your home. Adding glamour and striking beauty to any interior setting. It truly is a showstopper – AVALANA”
New hardware has been added to the cupboard doors, 2 gorgeous pear drop wooden keyhole covers in black ebony and 4 solid brass pulls on the drawers.

Absolutely gorgeous blanket box with a beautiful professional finish. Every detail was thought out. Delighted.

This is the second time we've bought off Upcite and will always return. This time around, we bought a Victorian Mahogany Chest Of Drawers (£429 including P&P) from Timeless Furniture LTD UK. We contacted Timeless Furniture (Wrexham) through the messages section and they (Dave) were super helpful in confirming P&P will be covered their end but also went out of their way to coat the chest of drawers with another round of woodworm treatment, which was much appreciated. The drawers had been treated before but Dave offered to do it again to allay our concerns. So, once they confirmed this we punched it. The drawers then arrived via courier about a week later and packed very well, arriving in one piece and no damage. Highly recommend Upcite and Timeless Furniture LTD UK. Pete
The nest of tables are very tastefully done, they are the final piece of furniture in our living room and we're very happy with them. Comms with J&M were great and the tables were packaged very well so arrived in perfect condition. We will definitely buy from UpCite and J&M again when we next need a beautiful piece of furniture. Many thanks
An absolutely stunning, one-of-a-kind vintage cabinet, lovingly restored by Julie and Mark, whose craftsmanship and attention to detail really shine through. The delivery process, unfortunately, didn’t go to plan, with damage caused by the courier, but both Cole at Upcite and Julie and Mark were incredibly supportive throughout. They pushed to have the piece properly repaired and kept me updated the whole way. Thanks to their persistence and care, the cabinet looks just as gorgeous in my home as I’d hoped. A true statement piece

"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".
