Bureau No. 38 - £159
A reproduction Georgian bureau nicely made and in good condition; it's small and will fit easily into most modern homes. The exterior paint is Annie Sloan Oxford Navy; the brush strokes are exaggerated and highlighted with clear wax. The writing slope has an abstract stencil in gold acrylic on opposite corners. Inside is in Annie Sloan Florence, stunning deep-sea blue/green; the leather panel on the writing slope is stencilled to complement the exterior. The drawers are lined. The original handles have been cleaned but left with some patina in keeping with the age of the piece. The lock is not in working order, but the key works well as a handle.
Exterior painted with 2 coats of Annie Sloan Oxford Navy

Interior partitions removed and painted in Oxford Navy
Leather inset on writing slope stencilled
Finished with 2 coats of clear wax and buffed to a light sheen

As with all vintage items it will have some signs of age, nothing to detract from the piece but please don't expect it to be like new. Expect personality and character and not an item that has been mass produced or spray painted.
