A good patina gives old furniture its warmth, not to mention its value. Original patina can't be faked, so furniture makers who want to give wood an aged appearance have to use special techniques to make the wood look old. Hand waxing as opposed to lacquering gives a far more authentic and rich finish especially after two or three coats. Mellow brown (no antiquing or distressing) old wood (mellow brown colour with additional distressing to create an antique effect) mahogany (a distressed wax finish which gives the bed a traditional antique appeal) french life each piece of furniture is individually hand painted before the ageing process begins. Once the paint is completely cured the knots are exposed and corners are worn off. But it's the woodworm effect that gives the furniture unique, two hundred-year old charm. Once the ageing process is complete each piece is hand waxed to a level of perfection customers rarely experience. As the furniture ages further knots come to the surface and show through the paint adding character to the furniture (please note: the finishes comes with intentional nicks and woodworm marks for effect). |
