I bought this piece in a large lot of other pieces and I somehow didn't see how sad of shape this one was in.
It was bad. I think they left it out in a field with horses because there was gnaw marks all over it.
These pictures make the piece look like it wasn't that bad. But once you got in there and really checked it out, it needed some TLC.
Some real deep TLC. The bones of the piece were in good condition so that really helped. I had to strip it, fix all the broken pieces, put new pieces in and make a door for the open side.
This is what it turned out looking like!
So much better. This actually turned out to be one of my favorite pieces I've done.
It was a really heavy piece too. Solid.
I kept the original hardware which kept that charm to it that I loved.
Really amazing piece!
