Curvy Desk

Sold
Another CL find and this one was in perfect shape and is solid wood with dovetail construction!  I stripped and re-stained the top in dark walnut and painted the rest in AS Old Ochre with a little Old White in the insets of the drawers then sanded back.  I then lightly distressed and used clear wax to seal.  I love this color with the dark walnut top.

  3. Beautiful, the dark wood finish is the perfect contrast with the white and the rubbed distressed details are the perfect accent.
