Lovely Yellow Chest (SOLD), Turquoise Chest (SOLD)

I have two new pieces! Both in a fun color - don't you love adding a splash of color to your house in the summertime? I do. Turquoise and yellow are two of my favorite accent colors .... both so bright and happy.
This first piece is an antique mahogany chest - made of SOLID mahogany (SOLD).  Here's the very old sticker inside the top drawer to prove it:
All of the 5 drawers are dovetailed and work beautifully - the top two have dividers inside. Tons of storage space in this old beauty. I love that it's a tall piece, but still up on legs. I've painted it Arles, which is a fabulous buttery yellow, and given it a distressed finish and a coat of clear wax for protection. It has all of the original hardware. Really a great piece of furniture! Would be an easy way to add a little color in a master bedroom, guest room, office, child's room..... anywhere you want a little sunshine. :-)  Measures 48'' tall x 34'' wide x 20'' deep, and priced at $330. A total steal for a solid mahogany piece!





 
Also available - a lovely turquoise chest (SOLD).  This is a mid-century piece with great lines and a bold color. :-)  It's made of solid maple and is super sturdy, and has 3 large dovetailed drawers. I love the original hardware on this one! Very retro and cool. I think this piece could serve so many purposes... it'd be a great entryway piece, it's the perfect height to be used as a tv stand or as a changing table, great as a dresser in a bedroom. I've painted it "Provence" - one of my all-time favorite chalk paint colors - and distressed it. Clear wax gives it a durable finish and a bit of a glow. Measurements are 34'' tall x 42'' wide x 19'' deep, and this piece is priced at $240.




If you're interested in purchasing either of these pieces, please send me an email by clicking on the "Contact Me" tab above - thank you!  Also, be sure to check out the post below for a great white chest on chest that's available as well. :-)
