Upcycled from an early 20th Century writing desk, this unique piece has been carefully cleaned, repaired and enhanced with owl and forest decoupage, original artwork, gold leaf, resin moulds and multi-layer paint.  There are 3 good sized drawers with original metal handles.  The claw and ball carved feet have been enhanced with gold leaf, as has the top drawer, which has also been given a 3d bark effect.  The support brackets extend as the top is opened.  All surfaces have been protected by a satin varnish.

Please note that most of my pieces are rescued from landfill and whilst I clean, repair and prep all pieces before upcycling, some signs of ageing and wear and tear cannot be fixed - I like to think these imperfections add to the character of the pieces.

Profits from the sale of my items are donated to CAC Climbers Against Cancer which funds projects supporting people living with cancer around the world.

Please do contact me if you have any queries.

Very happy

We're very happy with the chest of drawers. Great touch is supplying a small amount of paint and a brush for touch-ups.

Tall Victorian Chest of Drawers

Cole from Upcite has been extremely attentive, helpful and even when delivery failed, he did his best to sort the problem out and he did; always there to answer calls, returns messages and calls.
 
We can recommend him highly to everybody.

"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".
