The transition from the dying embers of the toic Victorian era to today's world can be traced through the pioneering life's work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Born in Glasgow, he trained as an architect and interior designer, as did many people. So why was he so different? Well, he introduced symbolism, balanced light with dark, and blended tradition and modernity. The giant achievements of Charles Rennie Mackintosh in both architecture and design now show him to be a man ahead of his time. Influenced by his work, the handmade Mackintosh Wellington Chest is available in two beautiful finishes and is decorated on the top right hand side with handmade ceramic plaques in crackle glaze cream. There are two different types of finish available: a waxed polish finish and a French style hand painted finish (click on images above for greater detail) as follows: Wax polished Hundreds of years of daily use give antique furniture a patina or natural finish. A good patina or natural finish. A good patina gives old furniture its warmth not to mention its value. Original patina can't be faked, so furniture makers who want to give wood an aged appearance have to use special techniques to make the wood look old. Hand waxing as opposed to lacquering gives a far more authentic and rich finish especially after two or three coats. Mellow Brown (no antiquing or distressing) Old Wood (Mellow Brown colour with additional distressing to create an antique effect) Mahogany (a distressed wax finish which gives the bed a traditional antique appeal) French Life Each piece of furniture is individually hand painted before the ageing process begins. Once the paint is completely cured the knots are exposed and corners are worn off. But it's the woodworm effect that gives the furniture unique, two hundred-year old charm. Once the ageing process is complete each piece is hand waxed to a level of perfection customers rarely experience. As the furniture ages further knots come to the surface and show through the paint adding character to the furniture Ivory CreamFrench Knicker PinkCorn Flower BlueSage Green Please note, delivery time for mahogany finish is an additional 2 weeks on the time stated above.
