Hi to all.
Firstly, anyone know what wood this is please?
I've Googled and it seems to be Ash or Walnut?
The wife wants it stripping back so it's a natural finish.
The unit is old and solid wood, handmade to the seller's specs.
I did it with an oak sideboard and finished it with Fiddes wax, which is what I hope to do with this.
The handles look OK when on, but they are like tin and nailed on. As you can see it just tore and mangled when I took the first one off.
Ideally I'd like brass replacements, but all I can find are flat solid ones, which obviously won't sit on the curved drawers.
Plus i'd prefer to cover the nail holes with it.
Any idea where I can find some?
Thanks for any help and advice.
John
