    Beautiful work. Glad there was only 1 layer of paint. It saddens me to see such beautiful pieces painted like that. They turned out wonderful.

    Not just one Captain's chair, but TWO! And for the cost of your "sweat equity"! Congratulations! They turned out beautifully; and I'm sure your Mrs is just thrilled!☺

    Beautiful. No wonder Brasilia is so popular with mid century furniture lovers. Great job, I'll bet you're thrilled to have them, plus they're arm chairs which are more expensive to buy.

    I have learned so much from you. I am always surprised when I see you using a technique that I used just on instinct. Makes me feel a bit more confident that I have a touch of common sense, heh. Thanks for sharing your skills/knowledge-how with the rest of us.

    Did you do anything to repair the burned-through veneer? Or was the gel stain enough to camouflage it? Love how solidly you repaired the chairs. Beautiful work!

    • @DashnerDesignRestoration

    Wow, they are beautiful. You did a wonderful job. I missed out on a Credenza from this series at in the state sale by five minutes. It was a 72 inch Brasilia credenza. It was still there and the people told me they had sold it for $50 to a nice couple….. I’m still heartbroken😔 glad to see that you’re shaving some of the most beautiful furniture in the world. Thank you and see you on the next one.

    • @metafive1
      @metafive1 6 місяців тому +4

      @@flavialm1the furniture series by Broyhill was likely inspired by the modernist Brasilia architecture of Oscar Niemeyer. To me particular examples are the Cathedral of Brasilia, Palacio de Alvorada and Palacio de Planalto designed in the 1950s. You can see the influence in the coffee table and dresser

    Greatfull work. This mid-century style was quite popular in Brazil, mainly because of the frenzy with the construction of the new capital, Brasília, in the mid-1950s, being inaugurated in 1960. And I say this as a resident of the city and connoisseur of the typical art and architecture of the city.

    Every time I see some furniture flipper chirping away about how great the sage green looks on whatever abomination that they are creating, I cringe knowing how much work it's going to be for someone down the road to get all that paint out of every fiddly little crack. If God wanted you to paint His marvelous works, maple syrup would come out sage green.
