Made to order.

This upcycled solid pine Victorian chest of 5 drawers is more than just furniture—it's a living testament to history. Every inch of its surface seems to echo with the tales of its previous owners, each stripe of paint a chapter in its story. Every time I glance at it, I'm drawn into its past, feeling the presence of those who once cherished it.

It has all the charming quirks of the Victorian-era, but now with a fresh, contemporary feel. Meticulously hand-painted in warm creamy white and sage green stripes and finished with a semi matte varnish, some of its original drawer handles still boast those adorable mother of pearl inserts, and those that were missing have been recreated to blend beautifully.

The top has been sanded smooth and nourished with a warm golden brown finishing oil.

The inside of each drawer has been cleaned and nourished with a natural furniture oil.

The whole chest is a touch of old-world glam with a cosy, welcoming vibe that fits perfectly into any style of home.

One of the biggest draws, (no pun intended), of these drawers is the fact they all have a keyhole. Sadly, no key, but I wonder what secrets were locked away….. diaries, love letters, lacy undergarments, or perhaps it was simply used for linen storage and kept locked up by the housekeeper.

Whatever its secrets may be, it’s the perfect understated, yet eye-catching, piece that’s different, stylish, and unique, and offers ample storage for clothes, linens, and whatever else you need to tuck away.

So, whether you're embracing the past or adding a touch of charm to the present, this chest of drawers is your go-to. It's history, reinvented. It's tradition, with a twist. It's a piece of the past, brought back to life for you.

"The sideboard is stunning, thank you. Looks perfect in my flat. As if it was meant to be there".

"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".

Beautiful Chair

I wanted a bit more of a statement piece for the alcove in my dining room and instantly loved the fabric on this restored chair. It looks great and something different to what’s available in a furniture store. Customer service and delivery was great too and I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Upcite to friends and family. I’ll certainly keep an eye out for other pieces that become available that will look great in my home.

Beautiful ottoman

Here is the ottoman in its new place - I said to Julie that its photo didn’t really do it justice - its absolutely lovely.

I would LIKE to be able to say that every purchase I make is dominated by deciding what's best for the environment.
However, to be honest it's more the individual artistry that goes into it that makes it a special unique piece of furniture. You simply cannot buy that new. Unless I suppose you commission an individual piece, in which case the astronomical price would put me off.
I was trawling for sideboards several months ago and one just jumped out screaming "buy me!" I did and I absolutely love it. I bought a beautiful trunk from her as well.
So now I will always see what upcycled beauties are available before buying new.

Purchased 3 large bookcases

I honestly was so delighted with finally getting hold of this beautiful piece which I had set my eyes on for sometime now! The communication with the seller was outstanding, he was so engaged in securing the assembly and delivery happens. Honestly, UPCITE was a great experience for me with your few emails checking is all fine. Very spot on for this type of items. The only leaa pleasant experience was the delivery team themselves, not the courier company; they damaged some paint on my walls, on the bookcase. Perhaps the packing could also be more secured at the edges as discussed with Gabriel.

Please continue the great work, much appreciated.
