Bassett credenza. I don't normally refinish other people's pieces. I like to be able to take my time and choose the design direction for the piece. However, the owner of this piece has bought a number of others from me and they wanted it to match. They had acquired it from a local vintage shop where it had already been "refinished". Fortunately I was able to strip off the stain they had applied. I am not a big believer in staining walnut, it is beautiful on its own. On this piece the oak used on the front edges and legs was also left natural for a 2-tone finish. The bottom pics are how it looked when they bought it. Once again I have to apologize for my poor photography. The color temp didn't look so "hot" when I took the pics but these are a bit red.
Not for sale.
