      I always favored oak and red tones but last February I refinished a headboard for my daughter. She liked darker tones and I bought a stain called Kona, very dark, almost black. I have stained several items in the meantime, including some cedar planks for an accent wall in my bathroom. I really like it for now, it feels fresh. Maybe in 20 years I’ll think it looks dated. The darker tones can certainly hide things the lighter ones won’t.

    • @Peggysmusic
      @Peggysmusic Рік тому +16

      I agree. He worked so hard on perfecting several small details, but then ended up covering up all that detail work with black. Maybe he just decided that the imperfections were so profound that black was the only solution.

  • @mommieminnesota3108

    I would have stained it a dark cherry or mahogany color bc that's what a lot of high end furniture was made of back in the day bc the wood was strong and pieces wood(😉) last a lifetime.

    You bring joy to my heart when I see the expertise that you have redoing these beautiful pieces. So many "furniture artists" scuff sand,slap some paint on them and call it finished. It makes me sad to see beautiful pieces done this way . These pieces are the history of the past eras and need to be treated as such. Thank you for your patience to do so.

    That black stain is a winner!! Now the buffet really looks art deco-ish. The gold leaf on the hardware is very elegant. The oil finish is classy. All in all a truly beautiful transformation. The lines of that piece, its construction were so worth all your effort--and I know you put in so many hours sanding. You have become an artist, Jay.

    Agreed. Your attention to detail is beautiful to watch. I'm in CT South Africa. Your comments and some of your actions are very amusing. Thank you for a delightful programme. ❤

    Beautiful! First time I’ve seen a restoration that did not just paint the piece and be done with it. It’s a shame there are not more like you to restore these wonderful pieces of history. 🇺🇸

    The gold leaf just blew me away. The finished project is so elegant. I’ll bet the wood drank in the oil like a desert traveler finding an oasis.
    I’m pretty sure I’ve watched this before (it was already liked) but I can’t find a previous comment. It deserves the extra compliments if I’ve commented already.

    Very nice job Beautiful buffet If it's art deco it's an early one (maybe around the end of WWI) It has still art nouveau's lines

    Great job. You transformed it up another level. The grain looks so much better exposed like that. Using the dark stain understates the carving perfectly. I thought it overpowered the look originally. It has an Asian Japanese look to it now imo.

    I'm sorry...for me, the black stain just ate the buffet. I think you did a beautiful restoration but chose the wrong finishes.

    Superb demonstration of expert craftsmanship and artistry. This video is almost a mini-seminar in clean technique and patient work. For me, the dark finish brought out the floral detail much more clearly than the 'natural' finish did, and the final effect certainly looks in keeping with Art Deco elegance. Thank you for this engrossing respite from the everyday.
