Fort York Red Salt Shaker

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.

Solid wood salt shaker gets a bold red update. It was custom ordered to go with this fun teal pepper grinder for a quirky fraternal S&P set.

As always the wood project gets a good scrub inside and out and left to dry.

Then three coats of Fusion Mineral Paint in Fort York red color were brushed on. To keep the aged look with no distressing to match the grinder, Fusion Mineral Paint's ageing wax was applied in the nooks and crannies.
