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.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, the dark wood finish is the perfect contrast with the white and the rubbed distressed details are the perfect accent.
ReplyDeletegorgeous! I LOVE the dark with white contrast and original wood on top!
ReplyDeleteThe desk is gorg, I love the way the top is wood and base white, love the carved detail that makes it look so substantial...
ReplyDeleteWow! That is beautiful! I painted a desk with the same color/stain... but it was no where near this pretty! It was a frumpy old man desk lol. Great job;)
