Historic Finishes

When it comes to your choices of historical finishes we have a variety to choose from and can tailor any to your particular needs. We use a variety of companies for our finishing from milk paint from The Real Milk Paint Company and Old Village Paints and Stains, for the Authentic paint and stains. we also have a house formulation we use to create our own colors. Below is just a few colors just to show for representation, we have a large selection of colors to choose from and can custom color match existing finishes in your home.

For this finish, our milk paint or latex is used to create the old look of the dry painted finish found on early pieces. this finish typically does not have a protective topcoat and will continue to wear and chip away as an original piece would have. We use this for furniture only that receives light use. This is a one-color only finish as it was the first finish on a piece from that period. Simulated distressing and aging will be present. Glaze and a top coat can be added.

For this finish our latex paint can be used, this gives a good look of an old piece but with the added glazes and toners and finished off with a low luster topcoat for added durability. This finish is a single color or over and darker undercoat color and can be used on our cabinetry and furniture. All pieces will have light distressing with an aged finish.

This Finish consist of two or more colors of choice may be used and will have layers and rub thru to show underlying color and wood and will be glazed and top coated with a low luster finish.
