My favorite find from yesterday…Has had a makeover! What do you think?General Finishes Lamp Black milk paint with light distressing was what it was crying out for.
The gold trim finally has its chance to shine against the deep black. The hardware was polished and pulls the whole look together.Even the back of this desk is lovely.Do you remember the old top?It’s now refinished and very stately in its new darker stain.The desk has two black leather topped partitions that slide out of either side. The gold detailing embossed on the leather complements the gold touches.What a find!
