This is another exceptional buffet cabinet we have recently completed for a client. Antique, handmade and hand shaped, heavily distressed mahogany buffet with Malibu Tile inserts. The client delivered it to us, asking to make it darker than it already was which was almost black. The steel hardware was rusted. As we washed the existing color off, I could see the beautiful color of the underlying wood tone. I convinced the owner to finish it lighter with a dark glaze absorbing into the distress while highlighting the details and hardware.
