After years of exposure to sun, oxygen, dust, mice, and daily use this family treasure was in need of a full restoration. The first photo shows the cabinet just prior to removal of the original finish. The finish was so oxidized that the beauty beneath was invisible.
The second photo is a drawer front after the finish was removed, but prior to the veneer repairs. Note the holes where nails were used to secure the veneer a very long time ago.
The last photo shows the restored cabinet returned to the customer.
