This dresser is made around 1900´s. It came to My workshop from the old private residence in Tallinn. It is one of the many items, I have restored for this house. It is not rare model, but it is still nicely designed true 19 century antique. It was unusual to see that all the original handles were still attached, so I gladly reused them.

This is one of your best videos ever. You must spend hours and hours editing. Loved the effect where there were two of you. I appreciate that you save the music for the reveal only. You time lapse and 'real time' perfectly, and it's so well done. Birch is not my favorite wood (usually stains blotchy, for one), yet it really works for this piece...maybe it's the ebonized wood that takes it up a notch. Truly a beautiful restoration! I am in awe of your skill and artistry, Master!

@linijka77 2 года назад

I agree. So far the best restoration. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@ATRestoration 2 года назад

Thanks David! I think I spent about 6-8 hours to edit this. 90% of the footage goes to trash, because there is so much repetitive work. I think my record was 90GB per video and final result was like 6GB. I forgot the show it on the video, I primed this dresser with thin shellac layer first, it reduces the blotchiness. Here in Estonia the birch is very common furniture material. Thanks again, it is always heart warming to read your comments.

@davidharris241 2 года назад

@@ATRestoration I saw that birch/shellac trick before. Might have been on Thomas Johnson's channel. (My second favorite after your's, of course!) I appreciate all the time you put into all your videos. Your kind words also warmed my heart, Ahti. You just made my day, sir!

Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ru-vid.comUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.

When you see how much work and love goes into restoring these old dressers you learn to appreciate how much work and love went into creating these in the first place. Great job!

@stephanymurdy3165 Год назад

The staining the detail on the top was stunning, I am always impressed with your ability to color match. And your ability to recreate any details that have been lost to time and 'critter chewing'. Very, very well done. Thank you so much for posting!

@timothyball3144 2 года назад

Wow, I really like that dresser with the contrasts in colors. Last night I was looking at my grandparents little secretary and got tired of the front door leaning down below level when open, so I took the sliding stops off to see what it would take to fix that and I realized that the hinge areas had been torn out and kinda repaired. I decided that I wanted to maintain the beautiful veneer, so I decided to chisel out the base oak and leave the veneer. I will then find some oak to glue in between then reshape the original curve. The holes for the pivot anchors will be an easy fix of drilling, dowels and redrilling. I figure that will be the easy part. The hard part (for me) will be figuring out how to finish it. I think I'll end up taking it to someone that knows, to get advice and supplies. Thank you for the inspiration and ideas.

@elenalatici9568 2 года назад

I envy your extraordinary, artistic skill. I also envy all of your tools! Such painstaking work. Beautiful! Anyone who balks at the price of a restored piece of furniture to this level, should be compelled to watch your videos. Have saved this, as I have a bureau with the feet cut off and had no idea how to attach new ones. You taught me that! 🙏 My Italian father and grandfather were brilliant at, not only restoration, but creating furniture. Because I was a girl growing up in the 50's&'60's I was expected to learn how to wash dishes and do housework in preparation for marriage and children. I rebelled and did neither. Thank you for this excellent tutorial.
