An elegant yet practical vintage bureau professionally refinished in a mix of wood, painted and decoupaged finishes.
The main carcass and cabriole legs have been painted in Farrow and Ball’s Inchyra Blue, a beautiful blue grey with some green undertones. It’s a perfect colour to complement the sides and inside of the bureau that have been decoupaged in Graham and Brown’s Timepiece wallpaper in Midnight. This strong and fibrous paper has a mix of florals and geometric diamonds with white, yellow and blue tones creating a sophisticated and eye-catching design. To add contrast the leather writing pad, original handles and visible edges have been painted in a pale gold with a subtle shimmer. The beautiful striped veneer drawer fronts and lid have been stripped and refinished in a hard wax oil with a satin finish to bring out the gorgeous grain.
I have a number of bureaus in stock and also have some more of this wallpaper so I could create something similar or we can work together to agree a new design bespoke to you.

VINTAGE FURNITURE
My process of refinishing furniture to a high quality includes any repairs that are needed then cleaning, sanding, priming, painting using high quality water based paint and varnishing for additional protection. Decoupaged areas are protected with multiple coats of varnish. Handles are either cleaned and polished, spray painted or new ones fitted. I take great care and time in every item I work on to get as a good finish as possible, however as with all hand painted, vintage items please do not expect a factory finish.
We will notify you when a similar item becomes available.

"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".

Very happy with the qualit of the drawers and would certainly shop here again.
I bought a Kraft Lloyd Loom Chair and Ottoman from Julie Griffiths, she was so helpful and answered all my queries and even changed the fabric on the ottoman to match the chair. They’re just perfect. Completely agree and support the principles of this up cycling website, payment was secure and simple and the service was better than most retail stores. Thank you
