Elegant MCM Tallboy in Cast Iron Black with Natural Wood Accents

Elevate your space with this exquisitely reimagined Mid-Century Modern tallboy chest. Once bearing a pale, dated finish, it now stuns in a rich cast iron black, beautifully contrasted by solid wood drawers finished in a warm, natural stain. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated—from the elegantly updated black hardware to the refined moldings and drawer groove accents. Smooth-gliding feet have been added for effortless movement across both hardwood and carpet. Measuring 34" W x 17.5" D x 40.5" H, this sophisticated piece offers both function and timeless style—an instant statement in any well-appointed room.

Pitch Black Antique Chair


One of my great customers gave me this antique chair stored in an old building and I knew it would be perfect painted as a staging prop.


I decided to go with a neutral black, Old Fashioned Milk Paint in pitch black to be exact.

I recently used it on this gorgeous antique gate leg table, my daughter's bed frame, and as a base coat on this pretty chalkboard.


OFMP goes on so smooth and took only 1 coat


It was then sanded well to reveal edges and details and sealed up with Daddy Van's hemp oil


This antique chair now has a pretty new look
