Antique Oak Dresser

Here are some shots of how dresser looked like when I finished it. The finish is eight hand rubbed coats of Danish Oil over a period of a week followed by a coat of a quality paste wax and vigorous buffing.

	Finished view. I replaced all the hardware on this dresser with reproductions of the originals or choices made by the customer. This included the drawer pulls, mirror swivels, oval keyhole covers, and the wooden casters.
	Closer view of the top of the dresser. All of the drawer guides and slides were rubbed down with paraffin wax to aid in easier sliding. The bottom edges of the drawer sides were waxed too.
	Even closer view of the top. That's some pretty figure!
	Notice the nice figured grain in the front edge of the top?

	New front wooden casters.
