Custom Finishes On A Clients Cabinet

$3,500

My client had a beautiful but slighly plain cherry entertainment unit built and asked how we could dress it up. So I pulled details from other ellements of the room and came up with this design. After adding some details and lightly distressing the piece i used both ebony stain and a dark cherry stain for the base, then did some antiquing and the hand painting and a slight rub or sanding to soften or age the artwork and ridges. Finally adding a satin poly finish and the hardware.

I work directly with the home or buisiness owners or with their designers. architacts and or art reps. The services begin with the clients ideas and theng go into design,samples and in some cases reserch into materials and product. The scope of the work varies from space design to finishes, fine art, signage, and murals to custom millwork, aplied details, custom cabinetry and furniture. We also ofer custom sculpture and carving servicesin wood and glass and various cast materials.
Nothing excites me more than a clients personality and unique tastes. They keep the work fresh and interesting.
