for those watching this video.. this is a restoration! A restoration is not changing the use of the piece say from a dresser to a side table.. its not painting the piece to cover up damage. A restoration is returning the piece to its original functionality, its original appearance as closely as possible. An absolutely wonderful job done here! Beautiful, high quality craftmanship!

This restoration is a mix of old world and modern techniques and more than a little humor. A great save as well. The use of animal glue (we guess rabbit skin) sawdust and pigment (guessing again carbon black) and the final finish of wax is the old world part. Some of this craftman's tools are to enough to make any one envious. Power tools for efficiency and hand tools for fine points. Great thought went into the videography with no promotion or infomercial additions. Danke!

Thanks for sharing your work with us. Your level of workmanship is fast becoming extinct. I am glad documenting it with filming like this can keep it alive. Thanks again.

[@verasreckovic4443]

I'm sorry but I don't agree with you. I don't think this craft is fast becoming extinct. I see more and more people both restoring and upcycling old pieces of furniture. This has increased alot over the last fews years, and especially so during Covid lockdowns. With so many sitting around with so much time on their hands, they looked around trying to find things to do. And a new group of restorers have been born. Whether they restore, upcycle, refurbish or repurpose, it's a wonderful thing. Giving old furniture a new lease of life is better for the planet, than throwing it away to buy new pieces.

[@florianvalentin8604]

As a historic furniture Conservator (retired) we would approach some of this quite differently, especially in the most strict practice in the U.S. However you still have great skills and patience. Respect! Liked, subbed and rang that bell!

[@chrigunrestauration]

Thanks very much. I will evolve. 😊

[@piedpiper7051]

I have a couple simple suggestions for you to try out in the future if you're up for it. While this walnut is beautiful as is, its natural beauty can be enhanced even more. First, when left completely sanded out like this all of its depth is removed since the rich patina that develops from age is actually very very thin. You can knock out that rawness and increase its patina with an application of potassium dichromate. Comes in powder form, just mix with water. It's very simple and you can do as many applications as you want, just apply and let dry and you'll see the results within minutes. Works very well also to match up a new piece of wood inserted into an old piece that you haven't sanded all the patina out of. Second tip is before you apply any coating, be it wax or whatever, apply a very thin diluted dewaxed shellac to the wood and let dry (1 or 2 campaigns is up to you). You're not trying to build any film coating on top, you're going to use the shellac because it is a low molecular weight material and it will sink deep into the fibers and pop the chatoyancy in a way that wax alone will never do. Experiment on some scraps and have fun!

[@chrigunrestauration]

Hi. Many Thanks. I will do that. Greetings from Oberberg from Germany

Die Anzahl an professionellen und hochwertigen Werkzeugen lässt mich bei jedem Video fassungslos zurück 😲😍 eine werkstattausrüstung zum neidisch werden!

[@chrigunrestauration]

Danke für das Lob! .-)

[@mariacunha6266]

Maravilhoso!!

[@chrigunrestauration]

Obrigado. :-)

You let the beauty of the wood grain come through, once again beautiful!😊

Just stunning. I was afraid the entire time that it would be over stained or, God forbid, painted. Natural wood is beautiful.

Sehr schöne Arbeit, ich liebe auch alte Möbel, habe auch selber schon einige kleine sachen aufgearbeitet, nicht so gut und professionell wie Sie, aber auch gut. Es macht einfach spaß zu sehenvwie aus etwas kaputtenem , etwas wieder schönes wird. Und die Kommode ist echt sehr sehr schön geworden. 👍👍👍

[@chrigunrestauration]

Vielen lieben Dank 😊

[@corilu1965]

Da stimme ich vollkommen zu. Sowohl das Video, als auch das restaurierte, alte Schätzchen sind eine Freude anzusehen. Mich wundert nur die Wertangabe der aufgearbeiteten Kommode mit 1200 €. Natürlich steckt sehr viel Arbeit, professionelles Wissen und Zeit in dem reparierten Möbel, aber ICH wäre niemals bereit, 1200 € dafür hinzulegen. Für einen Schrank oder etwas aufwändigeren Sekretär vielleicht, aber für eine eher "simple" Kommode ohne Schnitzereien oder sonstigen Schnickschnack?

Now that's much better, that's a cracking looking chest of drawers bees wax brought out the natural beauty in the grain, as it does. First class restoration. 👍👏👏👏👏👏
