Courtney : Victorian Set of drawers
Courtney is a Victorian set of drawers imported from the UK and comes with alot of history, she is imperfectly perfect and her revival is sympathetically applied with her history. Working in with the imperfections and drawing them out as part of her character, a rustic hand painted finish with layers of colours and age has revived her into a rustic beauty that demands to be a feature piece in a room.
Hand painted in layers of Albert Bridge, Morroco, Wild Heather and Deep Saffron with a final layer of Autumn Glow and Dark Wax along with coloured waxes it is a complex layered finish with multiple colours incorporated into the one piece. A piece like this allows for alot of freedom when it comes to dressing around her, allowing you to pull out the pinks, purples, blues or even oranges that lie in her paint finish providing flexibility when it comes to styling. We love using pieces like this in interior design against crisp modern style walls and using a piece like this a character feature piece in a modern setting providing balance and depth in the interior styling.
