  • In this video I will show you my latest techniques for distressing & antiquing to replicate those 18th-19th century Swedish Gustavian Antiques. Not only will this tutorial show you never before seen secrets to getting that amazing old world patina, but it will give you the confidence to finally execute that dream finish seen on antiques in places like Tara Shaw & Georgia Lacey.

    Since the king's name is Gustav (Goostahf), it's Goo STAH vian, not Goo STOH vian. Good job on the finish! You have a much better understanding of what is going on with Gustavian furniture than the others on UA-cam. It's a more nuanced effect, and a bit complicated, but you have a great eye. Thank you for this.

    Listening to a classical piece of "background" ambient music while painting adds to the theme.
    Excellent work.

    LOVE it! Second time to watch and probably one more time before I execute the finish on my piece, but using slightly different color combos and adding the wax resist method too - as seen in your other video! Thanks Brittany!

    I have just bought online, not yet received, a 19th century chest of drawers with a column on each side, fluted legs, bronze hardware and a black marble top. I got it cheap because one of the legs is broken/wobbly = 120 euros. It's not a great antique, the finish is terrible but I want to Finish it like this as my bedroom will be Swedish themed. I found two plaster reliefs for above each door and the drapes will be a redish toile de Jouy depicting old Versailles. I can't wait to start it but so much to do before with the living room wall panelling. Thanks for sharing

      Hi Stephanie! Your decor sounds beautiful. Please share your results with me. I'm busy trying to find that delicious gris-verte used in 18th century rooms, like the Hôtel de Tessé room at the Met. I even took paint chips to the Met with me one day to try to match it, to no avail, haha. What we won't do to get "the look", eh?

      @@cynthialambert9067 Hi Cynthia, sorry for the late reaction , well in the 18th century in France they used a paint called 'peinture a la colle' or glue based paint which is basically animal glue diluted of course then 'blanc de Meudon' ( basically a form of chalk ) and then pigments as paint. It was put on over a base of just chalk and watered glue which was sanded down. They usually made several passes with different tones, often rubbed down and sometimes then highlighted the carvings with either gold or a contrasting colour. It does build up on the surface so you have to accept that look as part of the process. I am currently studying 'Scagliola' which a wish to practice and use for two table tops. It imitates marble. I am planning on making the tables in the 18 th century 'rustic' style of branches supporting a top. It is an ambitious project for after the summer but I'm itching to get started, yet so much to do. Currently doing up the second floor front room as a second workroom then I have to completely redo one of the guest rooms of which there are three. I am doing a chinoiserie theme with bird wallpaper and have been collecting chinese watercolours of birds. A dealer friend just found me a black lacquer desk, Chinese for that room and I'm going to make the bed and upholster the bedhead with some gorgeous fabric found in NY via Etsy. I will post it on Insta , mrsmurrayandco , hugs from Dordogne xx

    Hi Brittany, great tutorial. I live in The Netherlands and I,m a big Amy Howard fan. Ordering her products is extremely expensive because of the shippng costs😢I was wondering, you mentioned using strong coffee or tea, can that also be used instead of the antiqing glaze when you want to reactivate the milk paint? Fusion milk paint products I can get here . Hope to hear from you. Greetings and thumbs up fir your video's

    Thank you for sharing. I've watched this a few times and am ready to try. Do you like using the antique glaze or the wax resist to distress to get a Gustavian finish?

  • @ambermoy8147

    Your technique is the best I've seen for this finish, but you keep saying Gustovian instead of Gustavian with an "a." It's distracting.

    I don't really understand this video
    I'm a furniture restorer in southern Sweden, I specialise in 17 and 1800s furniture rokoko to gustaviansk you say you don't want that fake look, it's totally fake and deceiving
    Anyway I was very intrigued by your video, and the no o in gustavian

    The "music" is absolutely AWFUL. had to mute and turn on Closed Caption. Right?
    NEVER ever use hardware store steel wool. Right?
    It is treated with oil to keep it from rusting and will penetrate your work. Right ?
    Secondly it is short grain and breaks up leaving a dust residue. Right?
    If you are going to use it WEAR A MASK. Right ?
    Better yet get long grain steel wool from Star-Liberon. Right?
    The piece does not look authentic.. in the corners and internal edges, the piece would be darker. Right?
