Salt & Pepper Set in Liberty Blue and Copper

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.

Copper tops called for a rich blue don't you think?

This super cute solid wood salt and pepper set was in dire need of a makeover.

After a good scrubbing inside and out it was time to polish the copper tops. See above how the metal polish (center) easily removed the grime.

And with some elbow grease the tops were back to their coppery selves.

There is a slight color difference between the two tops including the silver knobs but mixed metals are all the rage.

Now they are ready to paint.

Two coats of Fusion Mineral Paint in liberty blue were brushed on then paper bag sanded smooth. Fusion paint has a very durable built in top coat making it a super easy less step paint to use.

This gorgeous set is ready to serve.
