The Piece
A traditionally shaped bookcase, reworked with a deep charcoal finish and gold-painted Queen Anne legs. A gold crest ornament sits at the top rail, and one side panel carries a floral decoupage treatment.
The Transformation
The bookcase was finished in a dark charcoal tone, with the Queen Anne legs and top crest painted gold to contrast against the base colour.
A floral decoupage panel was applied to one side, adding a vintage-inspired detail to the piece.
The Archive
This piece has been sold and remains listed here as part of The Heritage Edit's archive of past studio work.
No formal restoration record was issued for this piece.
Restoration Story
This piece began as a traditional glazed cabinet before being reworked into an open bookcase with a darker, more contemporary finish.
The original structure was retained and transformed with a charcoal-black finish, decorative floral side panels and warm metallic detailing on the carved crest and feet.
Restored in Cape Town, the finished piece was sold and delivered to a private client in Johannesburg.
