ANTIQUE HALL TABLE

CAME ACROSS THIS OLD ANTIQUE HALL TABLE A FEW YEARS AGO, DECIDED TO ADD SOME DECORATIVE IRON ACCENTS FOR A SIMPLE COSMETIC PURPOSE. THE YELLOW AND BLACK COLOR COMBINATION REALLY GO TOGETHER WELL, THE DISTRESSED SURFACE OF THIS YELLOW TABLE ALSO REVEALS A TOUCH OF UNDERLYING RED, PROBABLY THE ORIGINAL FINISH FROM YEARS AGO.

ALL THE METALWORK IS HANDCRAFTED, LOCATED ON THE FRONT AND SIDES OF THE TABLE, ALSO THE FEET, WHICH ARE BRASS, HAVE A UNIQUE DESIGN ETCHED ONTO THE SURFACE. THE LEFT SIDE HAS A DRAWER WITH THE ORIGINAL WOODEN PULL, ADDED SOME ANTIQUE BLACK ON THE PULL TO CONTRAST WITH THE YELLOW FACE OF THE DRAWER. THE RIGHT SIDE IS EQUIPPED WITH A PULLOUT SHELF, A SMALL IRON PULL WAS ATTACHED FOR FUNCTION AND DESIGN. (MORE DETAILED PICS OF THIS REFINISHED PIECE BELOW.)

METAL ACCENTS

THESE METAL ACCENTS SHOWN ABOVE WERE ADDED FOR DECORATIVE INTENTIONS, SIMPLE ORNAMENTATIONS, BUT CERTAINLY GIVES THE TABLE A UNIQUE LOOK. THE CORNER BRACKETS ARE SMALL EMBELLISHMENTS USUALLY USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH IRON FRAMEWORK. THE SLEEVES FOR THE FEET OF THIS TABLE ARE BRASS, WHICH HAVE BEEN TINTED BLACK, THEN SCRATCH ETCHED WITH A LEAF DESIGN. A VERY RUSTIC TABLE OVERALL, WOULD REALLY BLEND WELL IN AN OLD FARMHOUSE IN THE COUNTRY.
