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.

Vintage Silverware Chest in Goddess Ashwagandha white


I love giving vintage silverware chests a modern update; here is the latest done in a lovely farmhouse white finish.


Solid wood with lovely dark stain but lots of wear begged for this update.


And I had the perfect color in my recent Fusion Mineral Paints's Lisa Marie Holmes color collection package.


Fusion Mineral Paints's newest paint color called Goddess Ashwagandha. These little tester pots are surprising in the surface they can cover. I also used this little pot to do this wood basket too.

Two coats were applied (see the first coat on the lower half and 2 on the top) then the edges were lightly distressed with a sanding sponge to reveal some of the original dark stain.


To give additional ageing I added Fusion Mineral Paint's ageing wax , see the difference below from without above?
