Waxed table show for boho chic store
This is a waxed table work on an antique farmhouse table.
Damage was not really severe but urgently needed a great clean, sand, wax and patina. It was due to be shown in a store as a counter top.

BEFORE |
The whole place experienced an extreme and unique makeover in terms of deco.
Firstly the laminated floor was removed giving place to a wonderful polished cement. Walls were then whitewashed with lime; false ceiling went off too and steel grids were fixed instead to sustain natural fabric lamps.
The aim was to re-use industrial elements for the decor. Rolling corrugated steel bars (used in construction) and wooden planks have been used for hanging shelves.
Adding a few white sprayed branches of olive trees the place now looks like a typical Andalusian penthouse surrounded by local nature.
Coming back to the antique table: once cleaned, sanded and protected I waxed (les Antiquaires wax) with heat gun and obtained a great patina. It stands now in the shop and the mixture of industrial elements combine perfectly with boho chic style of the articles.
