This vanity was in the gentleman’s family that I bought it from since the 1920s. I completely restored it. Original mirror, hardware, and bench. Completely hand painted and antiqued by yours truly. This was given to @bmoremelloyello for Christmas because I wanted to make her something as beautiful as she is. Originally it was all dark brown antique walnut number 700. Because it was a secret Christmas gift, I couldn’t take any before shots for fear that my lady may find them in my phone. Here is the finished after shot still in the family shop. Merry Christmas all.
