I scored w/ this shelf at Urban Ore today! This is a very sturdy and well-made shelf. It was obviously made for up on a wall which is why the top is not painted, but everything visible from below is painted. It's definitely from more frugal times. I bought this for $4 today!
That is a great find.
Its awesome. The two tone looks great.
thank you passion4trunks and aimathena! i love the color.
You're most welcome ho2cultcha :^) Happiest of holidays to you.
I really hope you leave this alone and not try to refinish it. Just my opinion but refinishing will take away another bit of history.
thank you aimathena and flhrjr2! i wouldn't dream of messing w/ the patina on this piece - perfectly dry, old blue paint!
the one thing which has me confused is the wood that it appears to be made of. it is very heavy and has a tropical feel to it. this piece may be guatemalan - unique and very cleanly crafted and painted piece. i really love this piece and have put it up in my bedroom where i look at it alot.
happy new year everybody!!
i just added a photo of how the shelf looks in my house.
Looks great. I have the same wall color, love it.
thanks aimathena. i am very pleased w/ that wall color.
It is a great color :-)
