About 6 years, I lived in Italy and my new neighbour asked me to help her put this little cupboard in a skip. I thought she was nuts for throwing it out, and she thought I was nuts for wanting to keep it. Originally, it was a dark brown wood, like the inside in the first pic. I painted it white with gold details, and it was/is one of my favourite salvage projects.
However, after the trip to Ireland and a year in storage, it was looking worse for wear, scratched in places and the gold had turned cat sick yellow!
One coat of paint later, and she is as good as new.
Hope you like it, kind regards,
