Hi Guys,
I have recently been given a wicker & brass trunk,I have sorted out the brass issues,but the trunk itself is in need to some TLC!,it is unravelling in places & different colours due to wear & tear.Any ideas how to bring it back to life it would be much appreciated.

thanks Radharc

for a quick fix-use the narrow nozzle of the hover to remove as much dust as possible, then dip a small brush in diluted white spirits on darker areas to even up colour tones. I tried this on a 56yr old wicker chair with great success. Good luck.
