  • In this video I will restore a nice small Art Deco wardrobe. This is part of the larger set of bed, nightstand and vanity. I also filmed the restoration of the nightstand. Link is in the end of the video.

    I haven’t seen that technique of 50% acetone & 50% mineral spirits to soften the lawyer before. That was cool! You did excellent work as always!

    Great restoration! Such a simple piece yet beautiful in its simplicity! The carving you recreated completed it! They REALLY do complete this beautiful piece. And wow such a great look on the inside as well! If this piece could talk I have no bought it would be extremely thankful!

    Вспомнила ещё как в моем детстве одноклассники ходили на школьный кружок по резьбе по дереву. И тоже вырезали целые доски с разными узорами, это было так красиво!!!

    Seriously, are you a vampire that has lived for centuries? Because how the hell have you acquired all this knowledge on different techniques and methods. I feel like you show us something new in every video lol. I've said it before and I'll say it once more I hope you have an apprentice that all these teachings will go to so they can carry on your work for future generations.. or maybe I was right the first time and you really are a vampire haha. 🧛‍♂️

      I think that after NAFTA was enacted and the Internet took off people just lost the skills.
      Nothing is "made in America" anymore and housing is so expensive that only the wealthy can afford homes. A furniture restorer would live in poverty. No kid wants to be creative anymore when they can work on Wall Street and get rich quick.
      Public schools even eliminated art classes 😮

    Simple yet elegant design beautifully given new life. I had a similar wardrobe in my bedroom as a small child. At night, a shimmering silver ball would appear from under the wardrobe and hover above the foot of my bed for several seconds before returning to whatever dimension it came from. It wasn't scary at all, rather comforting in fact. My parents never believed me ofc.

    Такая конструкция дверей не редкость для той эпохи. Подобный гардероб был в доме моего дедушки, только имел слегка закруглённые наружные грани дверец. И собирался точно такими же стальными стяжками. Сделан он был в России, вероятно в начале тридцатых.
    Отличная работа. Как всегда.

      I was thinking the same, C Duff and Siddi Gorsky.
      Since the Estonian Lady Leida has a different perspective lately -- and likely won't comment on Her wardrobe's "resurrection" and restoration -- I hope there're some Companions of Leida's Who remember it both from the 30s and after It, as All of Us tend to do, got a lil' bit wrinkled and dented and unstable at the joints while aging. The wardrobe is "aLive and well" again! And sill carrying It's historic delivery and train shipping markings.
      Surely, Those that knew It would be even more impressed than We are at the results of "the Master's hand".
      And thank You AT for the recipe of 50% acetone and 50% spirits -- under an absorbent pad and plastic -- to remove old finishes; "the Master's" Mind is even more impressive than His hands!

    @Ladybug-uf7uh 10 місяців тому

    Thank You, first of all, for the video. I learned something interesting here: 50/50 acetone and spirit will lift shellac better than commercial stripper! As a novice furniture restorer, in my other life, I could've used the information you impart in your video's. I appreciate you expertise and ability to see what a project can be. Wonderful wardrobe outcome.
