we love its xl format, with its numerous storage compartments, its molded cornices, its plinths, its old paint in places highlighting the compartments, giving the whole thing a crazy elegance.
the background is paneled.
the shelf has deliberately kept its old patina, which clearly gives it all its charm, the black borders which frame each box, the wood-look paint which is flaking nicely in places, with its very elegant color.
the piece of furniture has been completely washed, then protected with a transparent matte varnish.
defects inherent to its great age are present, defects in the paint, small gaps in the wood in places.
