Your skills gave an old, abused, water-damaged and neglected piece of furniture a new life. That was an amazing transformation. I respect your determination. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Not a fan of the dark stain but I'm so happy you rescued that elegant little table!

I'm not sure how many people would have thought this table was worth restoring. Great job!

Как из трухи, и мусора сотворить такую красоту? Пока не увидела, не поверила! Замечательный результат, украсит любой интерьер! Браво мастеру!

Обожаю смотреть как работает мастер -" золотые руки " ! Между прочим не всем мужчинам это дано и поэтому я преклоняюсь перед таким мастером ! Дай бог здоровья вам !

Не стоило красить в чёрный цвет.Лучше бы один раз промазать краской и вытереть,а после покрыть бесцветным лаком.Так бы просматривалась текстура дерева и шпона.Да и шпон при такой покраске в абсолютно чёрный цвет,является лишним.....его все равно не видно.

This table was a major disaster just screaming for help. You gave it new life and brought love back to this table through restoration. Wonderfully done 😊

I LOVE the dark stain! It looks so stately and elegant! I'm always so relieved and happy when wood is restored, not painted. Nicely done!

Well, you certainly changed that ! I must say though, the colour is much too dark for my liking, but you did a great job 🙂

It looks like someone left that pretty little table outside for years. I didn't think that was fixable! Amazing job!

The amount of craftsmanship and effort to take on a project like this is insane. It look like it was being head together by devine intervention and a Harry Potter spell then to turn out so beautifully; amazing !

Боже, как красиво. Браво, мастер, вы вернули столик к жизни, и вернули в него душу. Все старые вещи, сделаные руками, обладают душой. Браво.

Боже, он рассыпается,не мечтал уже о жизни и готов был умереть. Вы большой мастер,стол должен сказать спасибо за вторую жизнь!

I see a number of comments on the issue of the darkness of the stain. Although we may see it as too dark I believe you were spot on in using it. It is undoubtedly what was used originally. Your rescue of this piece was amazing and I feel perfectly accurate. Bravo on an amazing restoration.

I just stumbled upon your videos and love to watch you transform old stuff back to beauty. Thank you for keeping it simple - no annoying music or irritating banter. Just a craftsman doing his thing.

Золотых рук мастер! Такой многочасовой кропотливый труд вложен в реставрацию! Я живу в Германии и тут люди регулярно выбрасывают на мусорку прекрасные предметы мебели иногда смотрю и сердце сжимается, когда красивая мебель идет под прес мусорной машины! А тут человек великолепно реставрирует практически разрушенную мебель... Честь и хвала!

Я с удовольствием смотрела на то, как вы работаете. Отличная работа и очень красивый столик получился. Спасибо за ваше желание сохранить красоту.

Красота столика была понятна и до реставрации. Вы вернули столик к новой жизни. Прекрасная работа и доброе дело. Но мне жаль, что столик стал слишком тёмным.

Beautiful work! My mom used to have this exact table, sadly she had to sell it due to financial reasons. It’s pretty amazing how close you got the colors. The base was a matte black and the top was a dark wood stain. All the comments that are saying it’s too dark are wrong (lol, not seriously) but the original color scheme is supposed to be dark.

Какая кропотливая работа! Получилось замечательно!😊

Fiquei apaixonada por essa mesa. Eu vivi em Portugal um tempo, e encontrei uma mesinha quase igual, toda detonada, eu com meus limitados conhecimentos e ferramentas consegui restaurá-la, ficou linda. Pena que depois de um tempo comigo tive de deixá-la, porque voltei pro Brasil e não pude trazer comigo. Espero que a pessoa que vive na casa hoje esteja cuidando bem dela.

Wonderful restoration. You saved it! I love that style. We are losing the craftsmanship of older things. Lovely to have someone take the time and care to save something beautiful. Well done!

Fabulous!! Easy to follow every step through the process as I am just beginning to learn flipping furniture with that much work. I have flipped about a dozen pieces but never as intricate as this one It's just beautiful.

Absolutely beautifully done. I’ve only restored a couple of pieces myself and all I think about while doing it is “where have you been?, what have you seen? What have you heard? Thank you for saving these pieces!

Мне уже нравится, обожаю смотреть, как мастер, казалось бы совсем непригодной вещи, делает произведение исскуств, преклоняюсь перед талантом мастера- реставратора. Спасибо за труд.

Enjoyed the whole process but most struck by the creativity of ‘putting a heavy weight on it’ - always available, easy to apply 👍🏼 Love ❤️ the resulting little table.

Очень классная работа, но мне нравится более теплый тон, что был до этого. Этот столик получился кардинально темный , но до этого был более мягкий естественный . Но это мое мнение о цвете, а так стол и работа потрясающие.

Потрясающе! Из рухляди сделать красоту. Хотя?... с цветом... я тоже поменяла бы. Под орех или дуб было бы симпатичнее.

Ну как так можно????!! Восторг и восхищение!!!! Браво Мастеру!!!!

Keyifle izledim. Ben olsam o kadar koyu bir renge dönüştürmezdim. Oyma kısımlar görünürlüğünü kaybetti.

" А положу- ка я на него что-нибудь тяжёлое!" 👍😄Спасибо за минутку юмора!

Отличная работа! С удовольствием посмотрел! Обожаю реставрацию деревянной мебели. Спасибо за работу!)

The original veneer was several book-match pieces of possibly a variety of woods. He may not have been able to get some to do the restoration. Regardless, he did nicely rescue this piece from the trash and return it to being a nice-looking, usable table again. That may also be why he opted for the very dark finish. Good job.

Hermoso trabajo de restauración, me gustó mucho su trabajo. Lo aprecio mucho porque a mí me encanta "arreglar" cosas😍 gracias por mostrar tu tiempo trabajando con la reparación de la mesa, bien hecho 👌💖 saludos desde Costa Rica 🇨🇷

Pleasure to watch Fabulous restoration work Well appreciated Thanks

Satisfying to watch, thank you. My recommendation is a longer duration showing the finished piece. I didn't like the dark stain very much, but i do understand why you used it. Next time, you could re-veneer the entire top with a nice wood and leave it more natural.

Смотрела видео и получала наслаждение! Нравится мне подобные действия. Так я летом окна в доме перешкурила до дерева и покрасила под тик - красота ! Подхожу к дому и любуюсь 😆

Що робить час?☹️І як добре,що є такі майстри! Браво!!👏👏

I love watching your videos - your skill, your patience, and your inventiveness, are to be commended. Thanks for posting...

Отличная работа! Из трухи возродить такую красоту! Браво мастеру!

wow. hats off to you. at first when i looked at the table i asked is it worth it? then i watched this man working with the barest minimum tools and using bare hands, such a talent and patience. congratulations

Really enjoy your work and you refinished another piece and made it look restored very good gift you have thank you for sharing your craft!!!

I love dark steam, and you did a beautiful job❣️

Привет из Москвы! Замечательная реставрация! У Вас золотые руки. Здоровья Вам и супруге!

I'm glad you were able to see the possibilities. I thought it was "too far gone" to salvage! Wonderful work.

I agree. Way too dark. You can’t really see the wood grain anymore. But a crazy, well done restoration, just the same. At first I thought it would make great kindling. But you really transformed it! Well done! ❤️🦘

Супер это очень красиво вы просто молодец желаю удачи и процветания

Thank you for your video. Very few people would ever attempt such an ambitious project. You did a wonderful job... I think I may have tried gold-leafing on it myself as I did that to a similar table and it worked out wonderfully.

Wow. It looks stunning. I never would've thought that was salvageable. Bravo 👏 👏 👏

Excellent restoration on that classic piece.. Different colouring from the original, but it is what it is, when it comes to restoring old to 'new'. Nice job on the joinery and securing legs to the base.. Well done.. -Kudos

Esse trabalho de restauração, de recuperação de algo que um dia foi útil,me enche os olhos e o coração de tanta alegria.admiro muito esse dom que o nosso querido Deus deu a você e a muitos outros.parabéns!! Eu tive a grande e linda oportunidade de restaurar uma cadeira antiga que comprei num brechó perto da minha casa.A experiência foi maravilhosa.Quero repetir mais vezes.!! Parabéns pelo seu lindo trabalho.

Well I think this was really fantastic to watch I loved it what a difference you made To it well done to you Liz x

Замечательно! Очень люблю старинную мебель, в ней дух определенной эпохи.

Красота! Вот это мастер настоящий!🤗👍👍👍💯

Thank you for saving that table. It was a pleasure watching the work to the finish. Keep up the good work. Thank you

Very educational video (I’m a wannabe restorer!) and beautiful workmanship, not to mention the outcome. Unlike some others, this color choice is just my style…love it! Thanks for sharing!😊

Another life span for this table is well worth it , you are a great man and so funny sometimes a good visual teacher many hours of work thanks.

Lovely job of restoring this piece. Congratulations!

BEAUTIFUL WORK!!! Reminds me of what the Savior does to makes us more than we can be

If you showed me a before and after picture and told me you did that. I would have never believed you did that. That wood was awful to work with. There was so much soft wood, and all the damage. You should be so proud of you talent. God bless you.

Outstanding restoration. Looks really good, now.

What a beautiful job you did! This table looked horrific. You literally brought it back to life! Thank you! Another table saved from the burn pile/landfill!✌🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Мастер с большой буквы! Спасибо!❤😮

You did such a good job of restoring this once damaged table - it was very satisfying to watch! I personally would have either painted it a fun/funky bright color like a bright brink or green & glossed it OR painted it a more light muted neutral color such as a ‘french grey’ & waxed it… but this is all subjective to personal taste! Well done…

I like light colours of furniture and I wouldn't put that table into my house but it looks really great and I'm glad that such original things can have a second life.

Amazing talent and craftsmanship! This is the saddest piece of furniture I’ve ever seen! You worked your magic for sure! Absolutely beautiful

Absolutely beautiful !!!!!!❤

Ви повернули до життя чудову річ. Ще довгий час вона буде бавити очі. Дякую за майстерність.

Great job, lots of work! Good to see it saved in spite of so much damage. I had one of these old tables in my college apartment. It was a tall end table but it was in nice shape & light color, very old

Wonderful looks amazing, thank you for sharing

the original veneer was quite dark...i feel like the restoration honored the original piece and looks fabulous! excellent!❤

I had no idea you could do all of those things with or-to veneer! The table was fascinating start to finish. I’m curious what that teeny tiny sander or file was in your hand that I couldn’t really see. Also the epoxy and sawdust? Very creative. The ending is a stunner!! It looks so beautiful. it’s not that matte finish that’s popular now with darker stain-that actually looks like paint-It retained looking antique. Brilliant job. The beauty is hidden in the details. It takes a sharp eye to find the pieces worth restoring. Thank you for sharing ❤

I LOVE this! Exquisite. Light or dark, it's beautiful! 👍❤

Wow, I did not believe this table could be saved! Brought back to life for a few more good years. Fantastic restoration.

Love watching your work. It reminds me of my late father. Thank you for sharing your skills and patience.

That table is Provencal style from France. An excellent job. For me, too dark, I would have chosen a light cedar or oak tone, but very good job. Congratulations from Argentina🇦🇷

That's what I call one miracle restoration!! Stunning.

Замечательный столик получился . Всего доброго!

Its the first time I’ve seen your site. When i first started watching i thought this guy is nuts, he should trash the table. Glad i finished watching to the end. Damn u are good. It turned out beautiful. Im going to start following u.

Wow!You really like a challenge! That table looked pretty destroyed. I have a coffee table that is very similar to this one. The sides of the top are straight though. I refinished the top in a walnut stain, then painted the rest with a turquoise chalk paint. I highlighted some of the raised areas on the legs with some gold paint. I sealed it all with a water based poly. Several coats on the top. I just love it! When I bought it the top was scratched up and had some water stains. I bought it to redo though. I am not a professional. It was fun though! Your table turned out beautiful!

You have done this so many times, very talented! Wish I could learn from you or better yet , let me send you my furniture to do!😊

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!! That was AMAZING! Brought back to life, fabulous job, well done!

You did your research. This was the color when this table was made and it is lovely to see it so beautifully restored to its original look. What a beauty! Well done. Very satisfying to watch.❤

Мастер золотые руки👍Удачи вам!!!!!

Wow you must love a challenge! That was impressive. I didn’t realize you would need to sand the veneer.

Замечательная работа глухонемого мастера, я сразу это понял по жестам. Здоровья Вам!

Thank you for saving this piece. Your respect for these older pieces is astounding. You can still see beauty where there is none❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉👍🏼🍀😘🛐

Привет! Лайк поставил только за твои затраченные силы и время! Стол сам по себе великолепен! Зачем ты его соединял металлическими шурупами, это новодел! Эпоксидная смола в таких восстановлениях только в крайних случаях, когда нужно собрать что-то почти ушедшее! Всем добра!

I'm in awe that you were able to fix it. I have a piece that I want to fix one day and I thought it would be difficult but comparing it to this, it'll be a walk in the park (even for someone new to it like me!) What you did here is truly a master at work 🙌

You sir, are a miracle worker. That was simply fantastic work and artistry.

ماشاء الله تبارك الرحمن على هذه اليد المبدعة 👍

Wow! Perfect. These older pieces stained darker always look more elegant and timeless to me. Beautiful.❤

Good job. Saved the table so it does not end up in the dump and you saved the details as well

Amazing restoration! I would have chosen a much lighter color tone though!

I have the same side table from the European furniture set, but it has different colors of wood motif on the top!! It’s more cherry color and looks better in lighter color!! Great job!!!

Excellent job . I would brush some of antique gold or bronze all over the top of the table edges and end of legs as well where the embossed pattern to add more interest to the piece. Thank you for sharing . Subscribed xx

Great job. It's lovely to see this elegant little table given a second chance. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes.

Perfect. You give the new life to the table!👍

Wow… you did amazing work on the trans - formation, I too agree that the only thing is, it’s to black… it should have been a very dark brown with a liter brown top, showing more of the grain in the wood top! Amazing work was done!!
