That's what happened when I found this antique chest of drawers at ReStore.
He approved. Smart fellow.
I love the grape cluster pulls, the spindle details, and that amazing patina of worn wood.
The top has a large crack down the middle, which has been poorly repaired so it was priced accordingly. Some day I'll either pull the top off and repair it properly or replace it with a piece of marble. For now, I set a large tray on it for seasonal vignettes.
nice blog especially the handles that are in the shape of grapes leaf and with grapes is so impressive thanks for such a nice blog to see more new antique designs click here
ReplyDeleteHi, I just bought an old dresser with the same knobs, it has been painted cream, so I took the knobs off to strip it. Each one is stamped March 1870. Do you know anything more about this dersser? It has the same design on the sides.

ReplyDeleteI have a dresser like the one in the photo only larger. It came from my great grandparents who lived in Preston MN.
