Vintage CWS Chest of three drawers, painted in Annabell Duke 'Charcoal'. Blue and green painted base, floral decoupage.
Please note

This piece of restyled furniture has been hand-painted and hand-finished, and being vintage it has been around for a long time with many years under its belt.

I'm sure that you will agree that any minor imperfections that may be present only contribute to its character, charm and history.
Description Plus

A sweet mid-century chest of drawers, with that in-demand on-trend retro styling.

Manufactured by CWS Furniture of Shirley.

The main part is hand-painted in the colour Charcoal, a stunning grey/black. In keeping with the retro vibe, the legs have been painted in Petrol Blue, with the base frame and upstand in Fern Green. We chose this colour palette to complement the three drawers, which have been decoupaged in a modern wallpaper with a retro vibe.

We have cleaned and sprayed the original hardware, the drop handles in gold and the backplates in turquoise. The gold theme is repeated at the base of the legs to add that extra elegant touch, balance and detail.

The insides of the drawers, front edges and dovetails have also been painted in Charcoal. The drawer bases have been decoupaged to match the drawer fronts.

All paintwork and decoupage has been sealed with three coats of Polyvine Satin finish varnish.

Paints used: Annabell Duke Mineral Paint in Charcoal and Petrol Blue, Autentico Versante Matt in Fern, Fleur Chalky Look in Istanbul Interior, Montana Gold in Gold.

Why choose vintage furniture? Plus

Deciding to invest in a piece of vintage furniture is a sustainable choice in helping to save the environment and our planet. It gives you the freedom and the opportunity to create a truly personal, unique and stylish interior design statement for your home, your stamp, and your mark. It’s your chance to distinguish yourself from the crowds who are so easily led by fast-made, mass-produced and indistinguishable furniture, which, more often than not has been transported from the other side of the world.

Vintage furniture will make your home feel very special; it has character and soul and will be unique to you. My customers often say “That’s different”, to which I always reply “It’s good to be different!” Vintage furniture really can tell a story that no modern piece ever can: it gives a nod to the past and a smile to the future.

Owning a piece of vintage furniture can give you a sense of pride and nostalgia, a feeling you simply cannot experience from new furniture. My ethos is to respect the character of the piece while always delivering a structurally sound and fully functioning item of furniture ready for its new chapter in life.

A great deal of love, care and attention goes into every refurbishment I undertake so that you can enjoy your furniture for many years to come.
About my furniture Plus

Building on a solid foundation

Before starting, every piece is thoroughly checked. Any faults, such as loose joints, surface damage, etc are addressed. You can be sure that I haven't just covered up problems with a 'lick of paint'.

Surfaces are fully prepared prior to painting to make sure that the finish will be durable and lasting.

The right products for best results

I only use high quality furniture paints and other specialist products that I know and trust. You'll find many of these products available in my 'paint shop'.

Out of sight, but not out of mind

It's not only the first impression that matters: details do too.

  • All edges, where 'painted' meets 'not-painted', are taped to ensure clean lines.
  • Backs of pieces are generally painted - not every piece will be placed against a wall.
  • Underneaths of pieces are painted if there is any chance of seeing them when a piece is in place.
  • The insides of cupboards, drawers, etc are cleaned and refreshed

Not just for show

Almost all furniture has to be practical as well as beautiful.

I apply varnish to surfaces that are likely to see heavier wear, so the painted finish will be protected.

Both before and after painting, all moving parts, such as doors or drawers, are checked for smooth operation.

Do you want to know more?

I am happy to answer any questions that you may still have, or to supply more photographs if needed.

Should you be close enough, you are also very welcome to visit my Brailsford studio to inspect any pieces.

Trust in experience

I have over 10 years of professional furniture painting experience, and everything I have learned during that time goes towards making sure that you will be delighted with your new piece of furniture.

But don't just take my word for it, see my testimonials from previous happy customers.
