Saturday, November 5th, 2011
  • Will seat 8 with the extra leaf inserted. This is a mahogany pedestal table in the regency style, with lovely brass paw feet.

  • 38 and 3/4″ wide, 5′ long without the leaf, 7′ with the leaf.

BIG, OLD IRISH FARMHOUSE DRESSER e495

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

dresser

Lovely old dresser, 7 ‘ high, with lots of storage. It is very basically made, out of pine, but with some details that make it a bit special; the cut out shapes on the top and the herringbone tongue and groove on the doors. Because of it’s history there is worm damage , but I have treated and filled the holes. There are also many layers of paint, which I haven’t removed but rubbed down and painted over. This is just an undercoat. It is one piece and very heavy and I cannot deliver it .

This looks a brighter blue in the photo, because of the flash; it’s darker in the flesh. I rubbed the edges back, which gives it a bit more definition. I love these handles; they have a slight copperyness which looks good against the blue .

HAND-PAINTED 2 PIECE KITCHEN/CHILD’S BEDROOM STORAGE CUPBOARD

Monday, November 30th, 2009
  •  This is two separate pieces that I thought worked well together as a childs bedroom or playroom storage cupboard, hence the juicy green inside!
  • The base is a real piece of peasant furniture, probably home-made, out of elm, with beautiful bird carving around the top. My neighbour in the yard, Tia, says she has seen similar pieces in India . I have no idea where this is from or how old it is, but I think it is a bit special!
  • The top is a pine cupboard to which I added shelves.

UNUSUAL POPLAR AND PINE PANTRY CUPBOARD e320

Monday, November 30th, 2009
  •  This is a piece about which there has been much discussion! We suspect it has had a few different manifestations; the dovetail joints on the top surface suggest it has a bit of age about it. It’s a kitchen or pantry piece, workman-like, possibly used to store preserves, although the hinged top suggests air circulation, so maybe bread or cheese.
  • It has 3 wide , moveable pine shelves inside, so it could make a lovely linen cupboard

  • The mirror is contemporary, but I like it’s simple, classic shape. I painted it in the same very dark , purpley grey. e110.
