Quite some time ago I found this old dining room hutch on craigs list and ended up buying it.
It is solid wood and has been hand crafted by an elderly gentlemen who was a retired cabinet maker.
It came in 2 pieces, is unbelievably heavy and had several layers of bad paint jobs. One of them seemed to be a dark green at one point.
The hardware did not look so great either. It wasn't original to the piece and just did not look right.
My Table and chairs were mostly black in color so the choice to paint this hutch black was an easy one to make.
For the hinges, drawer and cabinet pulls i chose a contemporary satin nickle look
I think it turned out nice. It was a lot of work and at times frustration, but it sure was worth having a huge hutch with tons of storage for china and silverware.
Thanx for having a looksee =)
