This Old Vintage

01/17/2026

Good morning! Latest arrival to my shop…

This solid wood sideboard has been thoughtfully updated for both style and function. The original middle drawers were removed and replaced with open shelving, making it ideal for use as a media console, buffet, or storage piece.
The entire piece was thoroughly cleaned, sanded, professionally painted, and sealed for added durability. Old hardware was swapped out for new brass colored k***s to complete the look with a timeless, elevated finish.

With generous drawer storage on each side and open shelves in the center, this one-of-a-kind piece blends classic character with modern usability.

The color is a custom black, a blend of Coal Black and Cast Iron by Fusion Mineral Paint. A satin poly was added for a bit more protection. The walnut top is in original vintage condition.

Yes, this piece is big, but it’s also versatile. Picture it as a media console, dining room sideboard, main dresser, or entry focal point. A one-of-a-kind piece designed to feel both elevated and effortless.

Good morning!

Here are my 2 latest pieces that just landed at trend + relic!

• BLACK SIDEBOARD BUFFET •
This elegant sideboard embodies the charm and craftsmanship of a bygone era. Thoughtfully refreshed while preserving its historic character, it features a deep black finish that highlights the piece's architectural details…fluted corners, panelled doors, and classic mouldings. And the original brass hardware provides a beautiful contrast, aged to a warm, authentic glow.
Solid wood, dovetailed construction. Beautifully
refreshed while maintaining its antique character.

Perfect as a dining buffet, living room media console, or a statement hallway piece!

• BLUE MCM DRESSER •

Meet your new favorite statement piece. This Midcentury dresser has been reimagined in a moody teal with warm walnut-tones in between that give it that perfectly balanced artsy but still grown-up feel. The clean lines keep it minimal, while the color and wood accents bring all the character.
Five smooth, spacious
drawers mean it's as practical as it is pretty. Perfect for anyone who vibes with thoughtfully restored, one of a kind furniture rather than big box pieces.

Both available now and ready for their new home!
