Turning Japanese

renownedfurnitureadmin Residential Projects, Restoration

Updated: April 17, 2017

This was originally a one piece tall wall unit made in Japan back in the late 1800’s! We’ve been asked to carefully turn it into two buffets to site either side of a beautiful dining suite in a home on the beach.

The timber used to add the tops and sure up the base kicks was removed from a rotted out early 1900’s book shelf from the same client, so plenty of love gone into this transformation!

Turning Japanese, I think I’m turning Japanese, I really think so!

These classics still have their original authentic paper tape running along the joints on the inside and backs of the buffet – complete with Japanese writing. Our task? Don’t damage the tape, re-polish everything, build new ‘distressed tops’ and no press.

Restored Silky Oak Dining Suite

Many years ago our client rented a home and discovered a sideboard that had been left behind. They cleaned and painted it and brought it into their home. It was used for many years but sadly after much use they had to say goodbye to it. They came to us with a photo of the old sideboard and a sketch of a new one and asked us to custom build a replacement and this is the result. This traditional sideboard is made from Silver Ash, colour toned and polished to match the clients existing furnishings and has soft close drawer runners.
