THANKS SO MUCH! Like I said, I'm not done yet. The tapestry I thought was a perfect choice, but Theres so much build up of patina to the wood and Im against removing it all so all Im doing is lifting it in random areas with oils and a soft scotch bright.
The gold accent im hoping is not too much, [I'll keep it to a minimum] and when it feels right, I'll go over the entire chair with a slightly tinted oil to tone down the gold and keep it looking aged, but rejuvenated.
Last night I applied this little jewel. There was something previously there I can tell, may have been veneer or possibly mother of pearl, but I took an old earring [amethyst] and thought it was adorable!
Fit perfectly!
Thanks for the input!
Now can I get an opinion or two on what to charge for this? [I have someone coming to see]
