My grandparents had this style of furniture in their apartment in Odessa. I loved it, I remember crying when they replaced it with a lacquered wall to wall unit that everyone wanted to have at the time…
Another beauty from another era. Loving the two tones of the wood. It’s so striking. I’m really impressed that you made the proper knobs for it. I really believe when it comes to knowing your different pieces of furniture you definitely know it. So good to see you back you’ve been missed. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟👏
Ich bin begeistert, das sie immer beim Stil des Möbelstücks auch in den Details bleiben. Sie verdecken nicht Unzulänglichkeiten mit irgendeiner bunten Farbe sondern werden dem Charakter des Holzes gerecht
This is like watching professional athletes. They make it look so easy and effortless, then when you try to do it yourself, you realize just how skilled they are. And whenever I think I'm getting pretty good at my restoration craft I watch one of these videos and get a dose of humility.
Well, another masterpiece from the master artist. The attention to detail right down to casting the knobs made this restoration a beautifully finished 1940s period piece. ❤ Keep perfecting your skills and I can't wait to see your next restoration. 🙂👍
I had a stand in my home like this when I was a kid in the 70’s. I believe it was a stand to hold your telephone and the cubby was a place for your phone book. This brand msg back memories, fantastic job as usual.
As someone who restores & refinishes furniture myself, I really love watching your channel and have learned a lot from watching your episodes. Great job on this piece!
Wow, I love the style of this nightstand! And, as usual, you brought it back to life. After seeing so many restorers work on Art Deco pieces, I am really starting to love this style of furniture. This nightstand is gorgeous.
What an unusual nightstand! I love the indented shelf! Very clever designs from the Deco Era. You have done a fantastic job restoring this piece. Thanks for naming the wood. Some of us like to know these things. Flaming Birch is a good name for the fabulous wood grain. Again, this is a great piece of furniture restored with care and skill. Thanks!
Ahti, what a lovely nightstand. It looked so tired & worn out when you first showed it, and you gave it back its life. Thank you for sharing this. Really nicely done.
This is a lovely transformation. I love the definitive difference between the dark wood and the light trims. I imagine it may have started life that way, but over time blurred more into a muted difference. It’s a great restoration xx
The wood grain in this piece is just beautiful. I always get excited when the tiny brushes come out because it means some grain detail is about to be perfectly restored. Furniture hardware is just another topic of which you seem to have encyclopedic knowledge for materials and design. Beautiful, Ahti, as always.
The transformation of the wood as you apply the shellac made me say “oh!” out loud. If that little lovely piece of furniture could speak I think it would say the same thing.
Wow, how beautiful this piece turned out! The chosen shade really enhanced it, as did the handles you made. I'm speechless about your immense talent! Thank you and I'm already waiting for the new video! 🌷
Wow, you know all the cool tricks to make stuff. I love the Flaming Birch wood design that is beautiful. You always do such great work and on anything you can. Thanks for sharing and you have a wonderful day
The thing that I find amazing while at the same time makes me realize why a lot of pieces are tossed is that something that looks like it only has at most stain and varnish can actually have beautifully patterned wood underneath that's for the most part invisible! The veneer on this piece, gorgeous! Totally worth saving
It isn’t a night stand. It’s a telephone cabinet. That shelf on the side is for a phone book. Nice piece of vintage nostalgia. BTW, I’m 70 years old. I remember these kinds of cabinets😊
This gave me an answer to a problem about trying to find some pull-knobs - I can MAKE them! Lovely restoration. (I even have one of those vacuum boxes - supposed to keep vegetables fresher, but this is a much better use...)
Смотрела где-то 5 или 6 работ разных реставраторов. Но Ваш спектр возможностей самый широкий. Непревзойденно широкий: и золочение, и настоящая аутентичная обтяжка мебели, воссоздание отсутствующих частей и фурнитуры, много еще чего я не знаю, я любопытствую из-за дочки. У нее факультет Истории искусств. Вам нужно найти источник интересных сложных экземпляров для дальнейшего раскрытия Вашего таланта и возможностей роста. Простые вещи хороши, если Вы даете уроки мастерства для новичков. Но Вы Мастер Экстра-класса, поэтому хорошо бы показывать и сложные операции на редких экземплярах...
Once again an amazing restoration. I have to say you are soooo neat when you're working. It impresses me almost as much as your talent at restoring : )
Minu lemmiktehnikad: lihvimine, hööveldamine, meiseldamine, seejärel peitsimine, poleerimine ja poleerimine! 😻 GooTran My favorite techniques: sanding, planing, chiselling, then staining, polishing and buffing! 😻
Such beautiful veneers! Many people think that using veneers on less beautiful wood is wasteful. I disagree. Only a rich person could afford to have solid wood furniture made from such an expensive wood. Your project turned out beautifully. Another thing that I enjoy about your channel is how you show/teach others how to use tools, equipment & techniques that are accessible to a home woodworker. Using small pallet knives to insert glue under loose veneers, using a manual vacuum pump to remove bubbles from molded epoxy parts, creative use of paint pens to blend in repairs... I have learned some very useful things from watching your videos. Thanks Ahti!
I totally agree with the person who started with the words Ye obviously we are glad your back with us with new episoids of your skilful work. Welcome Back mr AT ❤🎉😮😊
For a second I thought you were putting on a vinyl top. ;-D I could sit there and just open and close it for a looong time, hahaha. Beautiful finish, well done!
