Refinished 1920s Antique Chest of Drawers – Whitewashed Contemporary Elegance
Bring timeless charm with a contemporary twist into your space with this beautifully refinished 1920s antique chest of drawers. Once cloaked in a heavy dark brown stain, this classic piece has undergone a complete transformation, emerging with a light, modern character while retaining its original craftsmanship.
The solid wood drawers have been carefully stripped, sanded, and whitewashed to reveal a stunning bleached effect that highlights the dramatic natural grain of the wood—each drawer front now a unique work of art. The vintage hardware has been thoughtfully cleaned and repainted to restore its classic detail, while the legs have been updated in a sleek, matte black for a bold yet balanced contrast.
Sealed with a durable finishing wax and protective lacquer on the painted areas, this chest is not only visually striking but also ready for everyday use. Whether placed in a bedroom, hallway, or living space, this one-of-a-kind piece brings refined character and modern flair to any home.
