Quirky Art Deco wardrobe restoration

In this video I will restore a nice small Art Deco wardrobe. This is part of the larger set of bed, nightstand and vanity. I also filmed the restoration of the nightstand. Link is in the end of the video.

One can always tell a master in his craft when he can perform 100% of all tasks required to complete a job. Very well done!!

[@toriam15]

I am always impressed with your skill to replace missing carvings. Great job!

[@amybucher5439]

I haven’t seen that technique of 50% acetone & 50% mineral spirits to soften the lawyer before. That was cool! You did excellent work as always!

[@LadyLeigh]

This is the second time I have watched this as I love your attention to detail and your carving of the little frieze. You certainly are a master craftsman. Can’t wait for more content! 🤗🇦🇺

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Yesterday I was thinking that it had been a while, and today here you are! What a lovely wardrobe and gorgeous restoration, Ahti. Thanks for sharing this with us all as well as sharing your awesome talents.

[@user-dz8dg6ey8g]

Слов нет, прекрасная реставрация. Уважение мастеру, и лайк однозначно.

[@rachelwalsh1388]

With great patience, he performed a miracle!

[@shockz16]

Seriously, are you a vampire that has lived for centuries? Because how the hell have you acquired all this knowledge on different techniques and methods. I feel like you show us something new in every video lol. I've said it before and I'll say it once more I hope you have an apprentice that all these teachings will go to so they can carry on your work for future generations.. or maybe I was right the first time and you really are a vampire haha. 🧛‍♂️

[@daaagggg2017]

Ha,ha. Very good 😂😂😂

[@RissaFirecat]

Rotflmfao! Good one!

[@cyan1616]

I think that after NAFTA was enacted and the Internet took off people just lost the skills. Nothing is "made in America" anymore and housing is so expensive that only the wealthy can afford homes. A furniture restorer would live in poverty. No kid wants to be creative anymore when they can work on Wall Street and get rich quick. Public schools even eliminated art classes 😮

[@bolinfan1519]

Beautiful set. Saving Estonian history, art, and culture, one piece at a time.

[@caroltanzi29]

A wonderful job. The replacement carving you did was perfect. Also, I loved how you handled the interior finish too. Carol from California

[@Lisa_Helmel]

Вспомнила ещё как в моем детстве одноклассники ходили на школьный кружок по резьбе по дереву. И тоже вырезали целые доски с разными узорами, это было так красиво!!!

[@dorislindeque887]

I have watched a number of your videos, and I am so impressed with the way you handle each article - gently, gently each piece is dismantled - no brute force is used and very, very little is destroyed or discarded, fantastic work - would like to see more of your upholstery work - thanks once again for your most informative videos

[@phyllisholt4847]

Your expertise is so astounding. It's beautiful to watch you in action.

[@joheldenbrand4985]

Could watch you repair furniture everyday ❤😊

[@terryiggulden5182]

I love the inside of the doors, very Art Deco. Beautiful work.

[@trendtalklive]

What a beautiful bedroom set. You are a master craftsman.

[@silaslizzie43]

Such a lovely, simple yet elegant piece. Amazing work!

[@lovingmayberry307]

Beautiful! 👍 I love the matching set!

[@131dyana]

Wow now that Lady has a back yard and a back patio. Way to go you two. God bless.

[@adriennejames9120]

It's a great day when there's a new video from AT Restoration!! Wonderful job, as always! I learn so much watching this channel!

[@andrewfarrell6120]

You are a magic man.

[@braedenbannister514]

I literally only come on KZbin to check if you’ve posted a new video. Love your work so so much you always do an amazing job!

[@jeankipper6954]

I didn't think it would turn out so well! Watching this in Seattle, Washington, USA

[@sarahdebeau2481]

I am amazed by the paint stripping.

[@darilynkrupp6309]

It becomes whole and glows once again, bravo. So good to share with friends another way to do a task.

[@lyndamorgan5221]

Love watching you bringing items back to life.

[@tedlym.3390]

The wardrobe looked wonderful when you finished restoring it. Thank you,

[@petervandermolen9835]

Loved the carving!

[@bethcrane5780]

Wow, just gorgeous! Simple design so suited for that wood, really brings out its warmth and character. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@PeanutsDadForever]

Another piece saved! Great work!🇦🇺👴🏻

[@ireneabbott]

Such a beautiful piece!!!

[@MegaMesozoic]

Beautiful workmanship!

[@user-sl3il5sz2s]

Такая конструкция дверей не редкость для той эпохи. Подобный гардероб был в доме моего дедушки, только имел слегка закруглённые наружные грани дверец. И собирался точно такими же стальными стяжками. Сделан он был в России, вероятно в начале тридцатых. Отличная работа. Как всегда.

[@nataliabartz2735]

Дорого мило... Великолепная работа, как всегда.

[@RissaFirecat]

You are a master! Thank you so much for your time and all of your hard work! You are wonderful!

[@derrickcordick1315]

Out standing job I could watch you carve wood all day it is so satisfying to watch again well done

[@Lisa_Helmel]

Кака замысловатая, необычная мебель раньше была! Люди умели создавать красоту. Только хотелось бы чтобы и внутри было покрытие лаком.

[@ruthfedrau5546]

So happy to see you and your skills at work again! Thank you.

[@cesarguilhen8627]

Olá amigo! Demorou para postar um novo vídeo, eu já estava ansioso. Seu trabalho é excelente e me inspira muito, sempre aprendo com seus vídeos. Obrigado!

[@donmcallister3745]

Very nice job as usual… so cool that you researched the owner… too… not just a piece of furniture… a bit of history too…👌 Thanks 🙏 🌜🌞🌛

[@tinareeder6491]

Beautiful! You do such nice work.

[@user-kb3jh8tl4l]

очень нравится Ваши видео,браво Мастеру!!!!!!Если можно было бы поставить 1000 лайков,однозначно они были бы в Ваш адрес!

[@yakubpatel1403]

Restored beautifully. Great look after restoration.

[@PeterRabbit000]

Amazing, masterful techniques!

[@originaltwyla4991]

The handles are like jewelry! ❤

[@hickorygolddoc]

Great restoration! Such a simple piece yet beautiful in its simplicity! The carving you recreated completed it! They REALLY do complete this beautiful piece. And wow such a great look on the inside as well! If this piece could talk I have no bought it would be extremely thankful! One of my top favorites of your restorations!

[@sheilagraf4084]

Love your detail work...even the matching of the screw head direction!!!!😊

[@mlaiuppa]

The shelving system is very interesting. Glad you used shellac and French Polish.

[@islandco.8029]

Turned out great, just this morning someone left something at my shops front door that's vaneer, searched youtube and found your video for some great tips, so thank you!.

[@suecoady8017]

I love the direction of the grain on the doors. However, i would like to see the inside outside. Beautiful refinish, the way i used to do it 50 yrs ago.

[@vinceianni4026]

Hello mister beautiful wardrobe beautifully restored well done

[@TukikoTroy]

Simple yet elegant design beautifully given new life. I had a similar wardrobe in my bedroom as a small child. At night, a shimmering silver ball would appear from under the wardrobe and hover above the foot of my bed for several seconds before returning to whatever dimension it came from. It wasn't scary at all, rather comforting in fact. My parents never believed me ofc.

[@lua4221]

wow. it's like watching a love story. you put so much care into restoring this piece. I always enjoy your videos. thank you

[@scaleartsg]

i learn alot of woodwork skills from this channel!

[@JuneSivell]

Brilliant job, your friend really did show an alternative to paint stripper. Would like to see more carving being done you seem to be very good at it.

[@amazinggrace3207]

You are incredible. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@myraholmes1178]

How beautiful this is. I am fascinated at how you restore these pieces.

[@vbee3571]

Excellent job; beautifully finish! ⭐️ Leida Osi would be proud!

[@ChipTheBun]

WOW. It is a real pleasure to watch you work.

[@cduff4505]

Leida would be so happy to know that her wardrobe was brought back to life with such care and love. ❤️Stunning work!

[@SiddiGorsky-xc7ub]

That’s exactly what I was thinking! Great job, Ahti

[@richardbonner2354]

I was thinking the same, C Duff and Siddi Gorsky. Since the Estonian Lady Leida has a different perspective lately -- and likely won't comment on Her wardrobe's "resurrection" and restoration -- I hope there're some Companions of Leida's Who remember it both from the 30s and after It, as All of Us tend to do, got a lil' bit wrinkled and dented and unstable at the joints while aging. The wardrobe is "aLive and well" again! And sill carrying It's historic delivery and train shipping markings. Surely, Those that knew It would be even more impressed than We are at the results of "the Master's hand". And thank You AT for the recipe of 50% acetone and 50% spirits -- under an absorbent pad and plastic -- to remove old finishes; "the Master's" Mind is even more impressive than His hands! 🙂 Rick Bonner Pennsyltucky

[@susanackerman217]

Very beautiful! ❤

[@irenebecker4815]

Awesome! Another beautiful restoration!

[@Vikingwerk]

Beautiful work.

[@333grace]

It's beautiful. The LORD Jesus has certainly gifted you in this. All the little additives to make the job easier and more affective were simple. Master craftsman. I think the elderly would have been very blessed to see what you were able to do with something she no doubt used for years.

[@wendyhart]

Nice work! You made it beautiful again ! I was so happy to see a new video from you! I just love your work! Thanks again!

[@delo1951]

Beautiful restoration! You are an artist!

[@adriannespring8598]

Stunning work!! Beautifully simple design.

[@kevinallsopp9802]

As ever, another great video from AT. I love these videos so much.

[@Ss-mh5wi]

These classic wardrobes are beautiful ❤

[@lauradoxtater1301]

If Leida was still with us I bet she would give you a big hug & kiss for the amazing restoration on her wardrobe 👍🏻 Stunning job as always ⭐️

[@katherineharper-sj4ys]

The carving is very nice. Thanks for the video and for sharing.

[@autodidactin]

Ahti, I could hear that wood saying “Thank you, thank you, thank you!” When you removed that ugly, lumpy old finish with that interesting procedure. A splendid restoration, as always. I too say Thank you!

[@hykimos]

You have given a new and beautiful life to the old one!

[@colleenmccarthy-evans3149]

beautiful, I love these classic wardrobes, especially the tiger oak ❤😁

[@michaelhenderson5683]

Excellent work once again 👏 👏👍

[@KimHarderFog]

Nice Art Deco'esque detaling on the front panels of the doors, with the angled lines of the veneer

[@lauracollins2787]

I love watching your handiwork. I've learned a great deal. You are quite the craftsman. Keep up the great work.

[@doddnejadfard3251]

I love the restoration,,,beautiful piece

[@tammymarshall749]

someone must have put the old finish on with a broom. I'm happy to see it done right. It looks beautiful now.

[@jackieraulerson2005]

Beautiful restoration. Thank you Jackie, MI in US

[@elizabethnash7491]

Such a great job! A pleasure to watch and listen to the amazing music 🙌🏻

[@dannraff]

Fantastic workmanship as usual nothing short as full magic thanks for sharing.

[@lisahodges8299]

Great job, I get to learn how to care for my furniture too. Birdy

[@tammyc1276]

Turned out stunning. Beautiful piece. Well done sir

[@flibustier6933]

Beautiful wardrobe and fantastic whole set of ferniture. Although Your „meister” abillity you show us great piece of history of ferniture. Thank You very much. Greetings from Poland

[@taniarichards1912]

A beautiful piece of restoration work

[@Ladybug-uf7uh]

Thank You, first of all, for the video. I learned something interesting here: 50/50 acetone and spirit will lift shellac better than commercial stripper! As a novice furniture restorer, in my other life, I could've used the information you impart in your video's. I appreciate you expertise and ability to see what a project can be. Wonderful wardrobe outcome.

[@ATRestoration]

There was another layer of something that was very hard on the shellac, that is why we used acetone.

[@pieterbosman6111]

An elegant piece reminding us of a time when value was placed on aesthetics as well as practicality.

[@belyachenok]

спасибо за рецепт по снятию лака!!!

[@Paul_Lane]

Very nice restoration.

[@sadiemc_63]

Beautiful! Great work on the carving!

[@MarianaRibeiro-yx8op]

Os móveis de antigamente tem uma coisa que falta nos de hoje "classe e elegância" parabéns pelo ótimo trabalho.

[@fr.philipneripowellop2917]

Beautiful!

[@barbarakeyser1221]

Love to watch you work. So meticulous reminds me of Watchung my dad work, as the oldest it was my job to be yhe chief tool man until my brothers got old enough to help. 😊

[@graemescott4825]

Great work & very interesting furniture

[@swampy1584]

Fantastic job your really brought that back to life

[@simonwaters1965]
