I can’t take my eyes off of it. It is positively beautiful. My father was a Carpenter who had a work shop with the most fascinating tools which I was reminded of while watching this video. He always allowed me to try to use them and did not consider them off limits when I was growing up. I could smell some of the chemicals as I saw you use them and it felt like I was there with you. My mother was an Architect who also shared her interests with me. I am a 74yr old lady living in a Condo of a gated community north of New Orleans. Thank you for sharing your gift with others and me. It gave me such joy to watch you so carefully bring the piece back to what it once was.
I am glad when it awakens such beautiful memories in them. 😀
My father was a cabinet maker, who was born in 1898. I can smell, see, feel so much about my days as a child watching him work. It was so nice to read what you've written here. I am 69 y/o.
@@maggiesfarm7970 It makes me very happy when it takes you back to childhood. 😀
It always makes me a little sad when other restorers throw out the antique lock and key, so thank you for not only keeping it, but restoring it as well! 🖤🖤🖤 It turned out absolutely gorgeous!!
😀
Totally mesmerizing have watched 5 this am Do you sell these pieces They are all just beautiful
@@doreenclarke863 Thanks. No. I usually give them away.
As a smith I've made a whole load of replacement keys for furniture restorers. Never ditch the original locks, some may even hold their own value
No matter how old the lock, a good smith will cut you a key, infact the older the easier (antique furniture locks are generally exceedingly simple single-lever designs or simple warded setups that pick in a minute or two)
@@celem1000 Thank you for the tip. 😀👍 Greetings
I went through the same process restoring an antique piano. They had painted that same ugly cream over it, and then paint it black over that. They stripped off the molding and stapled Naugahyde all over it. The saddest part is that it’s still an excellent instrument with a great sound board. Made by the Chicago Cable company, it was a Greek design and all of the decorative column pieces from the front are permanently gone. But I managed to get a decent black brown stain on it. Due to extensive paint damage, I couldn’t go with the original cherry wood color. Watching this video really brings back a lot of memories.
😀
это просто божественно! Никогда бы не подумала, что за непривлекательным комодом может скрываться произведение мебельного искусства с таким чудесным рисунком дерева. Вы просто волшебник!!!!
😀
Здравствуйте. Великолепная работа реставратора. Я не знаю, кто изначально был автором сего творенья, но реставрация превратила этот комодик в настоящее произведение искусства.
Beautiful cabinet........yes, it does look like a Biedermeier. Please, please have a longer reveal time at the end of your videos. It's nice to really get an opportunity to admire your amazing renovations. Thank you. 👍👏✨❤🙏

How anyone could look at that gorgeous mahogany and think,"Wow,that would look so much better with paint covering it..." 🙄
Probably painted in the seventies... was not thrown away...thus saved..

Who cares whether it is a Biedermeier or not - the work that has gone into restoring an antique piece is quite remarkable. and a celebration of restoration craftsmanship.
😀
I really want to know though. 😂
Haha, except the "small detail" whether its a real Biedermeier or not is very important!!!🧐🤔
I really admire your willingness to clean out every last tiny crevice. The result is absolutely gorgeous!
😊

I am a retired Contractor and as a hobby for 50 years I refinished and repaired antique furniture. I love doing it and I enjoyed watching you do it too. Nice job !
😊👍
This is so comforting. My grandparents used to own an antique shop and would often be renovating old furniture. Sometimes i would help.
You always miss the ones you love who have passed away, but then certain things trigger really strong memories and its like you're right back there, with them.
Im so glad i stumbled across your video. You do beautiful work.
It must take you 10 times longer to do while trying the record each step. You have so much patience.
🙏
Thank you for the nice comment. I am very happy if my video reminds you of the past. 😀
Yes. The work takes about 2x as long due to the video recordings. 🤷♀️ Greetings
Gosh I adore your videos. What a beautiful piece of cabinetry you brought back to life from that painted hell!! That was such a good pair with my Saturday morning coffee after a long week. I love that there is no annoying music, just simple, wonderful woodworking noises and satisfying visuals. We had a workshop/woodshop in out basement when I was a child, so this was such a treat to watch and listen too. You take such care, time and patience with these restorations and I hope you lnow how much your followers appreciate you and your craft! Thank you for such wonderful, gorgeous and delightful content! This channel is a diamond in the cesspool tendencies of youtube, I swear!!
Many thanks for this great compliment. 😀
What a great project! I often wonder why people paint over such gorgeous wood.... but then I recall that when I was a teenager, I did the same thing... painted my Mom's little side-table white... 40 years later, I stripped off the white paint and re-finished the beautiful wood with Danish Oil and I have it in my living room 60 years after I painted it white... Your project turned out beautiful!
😊
Not everyone likes the chaos of woodgrain. It's distracting to me. I like my walls and furniture monochrome and with clean sharp lines. That said, all those little details on this piece would be too distracting even in pure white.
@@SirBlade666 Yes, as they say, one man's meat is another man's poison... we are all different and isn't it great that there are also wonderful plain, simple, painted pieces of furniture? Something for everyone's tastes.
@@Dakiniwoman 👍
I think it’s more about when people paint irresponsibly in ways that damage the piece or dry the wood - it shows a kind of lack of care and wastefulness that is irresponsible. At least since we have access to so much information about good ways to do it these days - I mean making mistakes is fine and there’s no need to preserve everything - I am making an 1800’s spinning wheel operational again and there are some sacrifices that must be made (needing to replace the parts with lead in them for example) but it’s important to be respectful of our resources too
Thank you for this video. I just stumbled upon it and it brought back so many childhood memories. At 76 I can still remember the smell of my grandfather’s wood working basement. I can visualize the large wooden vice he used, my job was to turn the wood handle to close it up. I think I was about six or seven when he taught me how to use a hand saw. Even though I was his only granddaughter I think he recognized my mechanical skills even at a young age. Those lessons served me well as an adult, leaving the typewriter behind I worked with my hands in many areas, wood and machine shop and even in a small foundry. Again, thank you for bringing back cherished memories. 😊
Hello. I am very happy that this video brings back such beautiful memories. Greetings from Germany, Chris😊😊
MUY BONITA SU HISTORIA.

It is always a pleasure, to watch such wonderful work being done to restore such a beautiful cabinet! As they say “beauty is only skin deep”. But in your case, a layer of paint. Thank you, for sharing your talent with us all!

I’m so glad I discovered this. It was riveting even without the talking. A relief actually. Almost like ASMR for people who love antiques and restoration. ❤
😀
Yes! I used to like ASMR stuff and this is exactly like it. Soothing
Я никогда не слышала о бидермейере, но то что вы вернули к жизни такую красоту радуюсь этому.пусть эта вещь радует глаза людей и память о прошлом !
😀
Biedermeier was an early 19th century art movement from central Europe. Wikipedia says 1815 to 1848. Pieces had straight lines with curved overhanging edges at the top and often used matched burl wood as a design element. Expensive pieces had gilded trims and sometimes used ebony for detailing. I once owned a pine Biedermeier desk from Sweden that was made for a lower class market and had none of those fancy pieces except for the curved and overhanging wide top. I would say this piece, small but made of mahogany, was for a middle market.
Ich denke, es ist eher zweites Biedermeier, gegen Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts, also um 1870 entstanden. Ein gutes Kriterium ist die Furnierdicke. Im ersten Biedermeier hatte man noch dickeres gesägtes Furnier. Erst später konnte man es mit breiten Messern schaben. Auch das Schloß und Scharniere sind typisch für spätes 19. Das Ergebnis ist sehr gut. Auch die Wurmlöcher sind unsichtbar verschwunden. Eine Schellack Politur hätte zwar der Oberfläche noch etwas mehr Glanz gegeben, wäre aber für diesen Schrank zu aufwendig. Hat mich gefreut, das neue Werk zu sehen.
Hallo. Das freut mich. ich denke auch das es etwas später war. Die Füße passen auch nicht zu der früheren Zeit.😊
@@chrigunrestauration das ist das was ich nach den ersten Sekunden dachte, die Füsse passen da eher nicht dazu, selbst bei der Schlüsselrosette bin ich skeptisch.
@@chrigunrestauration Stimmt, ich glaube die Füße sind eventuell noch später entstanden oder von einem anderen Möbel entliehen als man es zum Stilmöbel umrestauriert hat. Aber so schaut es schon richtig gut aus!
Как я люблю смотреть, когда ,казалось бы безнадежно утраченная вещь, сказочно превращается в прекрасный шедевр благодаря мастеру-волшебнику!!!😊

This video is like watching ASMR!! I love the camera shots as it feels like the viewer is right there with you.
You have incredible patience and attention to detail which is very rare these days. The end product is spectacular. 🙂
😀
I love how you take every little piece of the cabinet apart and bring it back to life. How could anyone paint that awesome piece. Anyone can look at it and know its very much an antique. I love your work. Absolutely beautiful.
😀 I believe it was painted a long time ago. Back when people were tired of dark furniture
All previous owners made a mess out of this beautiful cabinet.
What a labor of love!!❤
When u have the right tools, the job is half done...great job...awesome!
😊
Какое счастье, что есть талантливые люди, умеющие и любящие восстанавливать такие вещи..Спасибо вам за ваш труд.
Watching you do this painstakingly beautiful work is so relaxing to me. I'm 78 now and my husband used to do quite a bit of cabinet work and would repair some personal pieces for family and friends. I would watch him and help "fetch" some of his needed supplies. He died in 2006 of cancer and I miss him every day. Watching you brings back memories of peaceful (for the most part!) companionship. Thank you.
Hi, Thank You. I am very happy that my work brings back such memories. Greetings from Germany. Chris 😊
I can't believe it's the same piece of furniture. I didn't think anyone could fix that piece. You floored me with an amazing job on it. It is gorgeous!
😀
I used to do furniture restoration myself but this guy has tools and a workshop I could only dream of.
😀

I can say that I finally saw a perfect restoration, the others always spoil the end by repainting it. There, you restore it to its original beauty. good work. Really
😊
I love a wood finish. Not a fan of painted wood.
@@Kfaircloth13457 me too, I have always thought that wood must breathe and that if you paint it, the wood does not breathe.
@@Kfaircloth13457 Agree totally! If someone wants painted wood furniture, they should buy from a store like IKEA and NOT trash good wood with paint.
Сейчас стало модным всё красить в белый цвет как в больнице.Что не всегда красиво.
I've never watched a refinishing or restoration video. Very interesting. The transformation is incredible. I wouldn't know what kind of furniture I would be looking at to know if it's anything valuable but I know that this looks beautiful now.
😀
I love the way he captured the feel of each movement of the process. The feeling you get when you scrape the first bit of loosened paint off. Satisfying. Wow. I want one of those Stanley devices
😀
Es ist so schön,es zaubert mir immer wieder ein Lächeln ins Gesicht wenn ich sehe was ein Handwerk alles kann.Danke💞

Started our as fugly and ended up being stunning. This piece took a lot of work from the looks of it. You never disappoint. Love how you brought back the beauty of a grain you rarely see anymore.

Right!! Any furniture we buy today is particle board crap...no solid wood available unless we buy an antique.

Gorgeous restoration! My father, in 1960, had beautiful tongue and groove solid mahogany paneling put all throughout our den, living room and dining room and even in the “picture windows”. So rare to see it any more. It darkened so much over the years.
😀
Wow -gorgeous bookmatched flame mahogany. Beautiful restoration - thanks for rescuing it and sharing its rebirth with us.
You are a chemist as well as a carpenter. The amount of patience restorers have to strip, sand, fix, repair and then beautify furniture. It always amazes me. Wonderful work!!!
😊
I really like the Biedermeier style and am sorry that later generations did not appreciate the heavy forms. The true beauty was in the wonderful wood patterns. My favorite is the light fruit wood veneers and black lacquer.
😊👍
All your work is nearly impossible to repair yet you turned every piece into a masterpiece ✨️ 👏 👌 great tools and techniques. God bless
😀
😮 Talk about jaw dropping!!! Wow! This is spectacular. What a beautiful piece , now. I've seen lots of people in this business but I honestly think you are the best and I mean that. 👍

The wood burls really show up well now and that adds beauty to this piece. Marvelous restoration! Thank you for saving this piece of furniture.
😀
I have very little technical skills or knowledge, but I Iove to watch furniture restoration videos. This was the first time I have watched one of your videos. I enjoyed it tremendously, because you used a number of different techniques and instruments to get to the end results. 😊
😊
I don't know if it's a Biedermeier or not, but you have done a great job of making it ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!
Gut gemacht!
😀
I love all the traditional tools. Old school workmanship and a great restoration. Well done!

Restoration art is the word!
You are truly gifted & talented with furniture restoration. Absolutely stunning work! ❤
😀
Biedermeier? Or not!! Who cares. It is absolutely beautiful!!! Loved the way the paint drops off like curtains, to reveal a dear little cabinet, that you have restored to its real beauty. Thank you for showing us.Very satisfying.
😊
Very nice job! A trick I learned while working for a furniture restorer was after using paint stripper, scrape off the excess paint then use wire wool with hot soapy water, it cleans up the last bits of paint and stripper out of the grain and areas of detail. It often saves having to remove some parts.
OK. Thanks. I will keep that in mind. 😊
Автор, восхищаюсь твоим терпением и набором инструментов! Современная химия тоже очень помогает. Удачи!
Спасибо 😀
Love the video! No unnecessary music or commentary. Your work speaks for itself. Fantastic job!
😀
Don't know who painted this but they should be punished severely. Covering all that beautiful mahogany--what were they thinking? Wonderful restoration.
😊
Over the years fine furniture is used, people sell it and the new buyers may not like the look of the cabinet and decide to paint it to match their decor or their style and hide scratches and dings that come with life. They think the new look is nice and live with it for more years until tastes change and they either move it to the curb or sell it in a yard sale. The fact that it was once valuable is lost. Most people don’t care who made it…..it’s not a piece of art to be polished and showcased…it’s a cabinet or a chair or an old table. Young people today look for bargains on line or in second hand shops because it’s what they can afford. Take it home and throw a coat of paint on it and use it and love it. Young neighbours of mine bought an old house with a large beautiful fireplace mantle with attached mirror all of it ornately carved and stained. His wife thought it too dark for the room and so they painted it white. Their friends all thought it looked much better. A hundred years from now new owners will gnash their teeth and wonder why someone would ruin a work of art. But that’s how life moves and so we are grateful for the restorers who can bring back the original beauty.
In the 70s people painted over everything. My Mom used a product that supposedly made the piece look 'antique'.
😂😂 Yes for sure 😂😂
@@bunker123sugar haha yes I remember that!
Love love love that you don't ruin your videos with background music that distracts! Your work is amazing!
😀
Came out beautiful.
The before and after shows the amazing contrast.
From what looked like an old metal cabinet to a beautiful wood cabinet
Thanks 😀
😊Hello! Really enjoying your content especially your wood working skills. Watching you scrape off, in order to remove the old paint is immensely satisfying and rewarding! Thank you for sharing this project!
Teşekkürler. Bu beni mutlu ediyor. 😀
Not Biedermeier, but it came out gorgeously! Biedermeier doesn't have fancy, scrolled feet. They're usually extremely simple, sometimes heavy and blockish and sometimes slender and tapered. You did the most amazing job on it!
😊
@highpsi11 Some Biedermeier does indeed come with scrolled or clawed feet and occasionally extremely elaborate.
@@Consrignrant OK. Thanks. I really do not know it. But now I think it's a replica. Made around 1900.
@@chrigunrestauration The work of your hands is excellent and the result is really magnificent. In Vienna it would be certainly considered a copy, true Biedermeiers are those made between the Vienna Congress and the 1848 Revolte.. I have never payed attention to the Biedermeier Schränke feet but in seeing some examples in internet it is true that most of them are just straight. The top, with rounded corners reminds me of furniture of the 1930ies, more than Biedermeier.
How can you tell and what do I look for in such furniture. I'm over here in Germany and have some very old furniture, very bulky and blockish with a key to unlock the cabinets. We got them from my hubby's ex-boss's mom who was very on in her years before she passed. Oh and edit... man these couple of cabinets are so very heavy. The furniture here they they are just about giving away is insane, so much of it, as the older generation passes on and then new generation embraces cheap IKEA crap.
When I saw the dark wood under the paint I knew, you just hit the jackpot,it looks amazing, restored but not new looking.❤❤❤❤❤
😊
I still don’t know if it’s a Biedermeier, but you certainly did restore it to it’s glory! It certainly is much more beautiful than being covered with that paint.
Thanks. No, it is a replica from around 1900
It is possible, but Biedermeier was generally a lighter wood. Acrh Digest published a big article on Niall Smith's (?) collection in the mid '80s. you might want to refer to that. It looks Edwardian to me and it is beautifully redone. (The simple shapes are similar.)You are a master !
Thanks 😊
I have a Biedermeier that is dark cherry veneer with black trim and legs. It has the original glass and cupboard felt lining. When you look inside the lower cabinet it looks like it was made from older furniture pieces. It is over 200 years old and passed down through family. I wish I could restore it to it's original beauty.
That was the most satisfying paint stripping I have seen lately. Beautiful wood under all the paint.
wishing even one in ten pieces would strip that cleanly
😊
Luv watching your work. I learn so much from it. Glad you are a master craftsman with a passion for restoration. Beautiful piece!
😀
This is beautifully done!!
Congratulations on setting this lovely item to rights. Such a little treasure.

🌸 such a gorgeous piece of furniture
I love the look of natural wood
When I was younger my mom had full set of mahogany furniture, dinner 6 seater set, coffee table, wardrobes, beds etc
It was so heartbreaking to sell all quickly so we can move away abroad. My dear mother didn’t get the price they were actually worth However I’m sure new owners looked after them with same love & respect my mom had for it
I remember my chore was polishing the dining table & chairs, and coffee table with tv cabinet
My brother had bedroom, it was so beautiful such a pleasure watching the intricate lines of the tree’s time period
It inspired me to do art, I still practice my art. All stemmed from me admiring natural beauty of the wood
😀
Amazing how much work goes in restoring this piece. Beautiful work.

Watching this restoration was mesmerizing and so satisfying to the end. The work, the time given to this piece, the use of so many tools …. Such a lost art in todays world of cheap disposable furniture. Bravo to this master artist.
Thank you 😀
I really enjoyed watching your process and expertise. I had never known how restorers used tools to make new trim(like on the front of the cabinet doors) it was nice to see that technique. I think the repairs were amazing. It was a beautiful job by a talented craftsman. Thank you for sharing.

This makes me think of a story my grandmom always told about her mother when ur mom went to paint her furniture yellow in the 50s and my grandmom was horrified and her mother said "you try looking at the same damn table for 80 years im sick of it its mine and im tired of looking at wood"
That is to say, even when restoring those paint jobs dont forget about the joy that painting it mightve caused the person that owned it for a long time ❤
That's right. there were certainly reasons for the painting
Watching you work is like poetry in motion. And the side table/ nightstand came out so lovely. I'd buy it lol. Bravo!
😀
Stunning restoration! You are a master craftsman for sure!
What a beautiful job you did. You brought that cabinet back to life. ❤❤❤❤
😀
Beautiful restoring job. I really like the close-ups. I don’t know enough about Biedermeier artifacts to know if it’s really from that period or not. In Wien, the City Museum had a terrific exhibit on the Biedermeier era, the Congress of Wien, etc. in 1987-1988. I’m not sure how much furniture from that period (early 1800s) could have survived to today.
Thanks. It turns out that the cabinet is from around 1900n. it is not Biedermeier. But still a nice piece.
Who would want to paint that beautiful wood?? I love the high gloss sheen. Please show more of the reveal: more angles, more sides, longer. Gorgeous!

Thanks. Greetings from Germany
Now that reminded me of that 200 years old door I had to restore once during my apprenticeship... Took me a full week and 3 different products just to get that old paint off... You can't imagine how much it pleased me to see that paint go off rather easily here.
It was a beautiful door with lots of delicate details. barely any flat surfaces like with this thing.
In the end it looked almost brand new and the customer was very pleased, so it was worth it... But never again do I want to spend that much time on carefully scraping and sanding off paint 😂
😀 I can understand that. There are other things that are more fun
Yes! It´s a Biedermeier! Great job! Thanks from Brazil.
😊
Was there any writing on the back panel or under the drawers to identify it? The nail looked hand forged, very old. And the grain was stunning, certainly possible. Thank you for sharing, but I agree, longer time needed at end of video to admire your work.
😊
Terrific work! Great job and attention to detail. If it wasn't a Biedermier when you received it, it is now! Fantastic!!❤

Просто смешно вас читать.мне не нравится такой цвет мебели.я бы ее тоже перекрасила
It worked something like this: The 1800s and early 1900s homes were dark. Lighting was gas lamps or candles. But good quality wood was easily available, so most furniture was finished as natural wood. Often the finish would darken with age, but the furniture was still in keeping with the house.
By the 1950s electric lights were common in most cities and some parts (but not all) of the country. The electric lights made the inside of the house brighter, but the old dark furniture just sucked up light, and was considered an eyesore. For those that couldn't buy new furniture easily, repainting the old furniture in lighter colors was the usual thing. This cabinet seems to have been repainted moderately well. I don't see a lot of brush strokes and paint runs, and the white and gold probably worked fairly well when it was still fairly new.
Now we still have bright houses, in fact rather brighter houses than the 1950s, but everything is plastic or metal, and wood is a luxury, or at least unusual. Obviously (to us) natural wood seems more elegant and exotic than painted wood, and a dark piece of furniture contrasts with all of the lighter colored plastic, and blends well with the black frame around the flat screen TV. So the now chipped, stained, and fading paint comes back off.
@@lwilton Thanks for the explanation. That's how it makes sense. 😀👍 Greetings
Moin Chris,
Eine fantastische Restauration, mit viel gefühl für details. Ich repariere auch alte Möbel, aber auf einen niedriger Niveau als deine Arbeit. Habe gerade dein Kanal abonniert, es steht in einer Gruppe mit AT Restauration und Thomas Johnson in USA. Gratuliere, dein Kanal ist eine Bereicherung für You ube. Grüße aus Nord Hessen, Robert
Hi. Vielen Dank für dieses nette Kompliment. 😀 grüße aus dem Oberbergischen
Stunning piece. The muddiness of the hardware in particular the key lock in brass. Not enough clear detail usually dead giveaway. I believe it's an early reproduction. Also, if it is as stated, I would have preferred a natural hot wax finish. But bro? Magnificent work truly enjoyed video
😀 You're right. It's from 1900
Amazing job!
I always learn a lot watching your videos 😊
That makes me happy. 😊
