This beautifully finished attractive piece of furniture would be a handsome addition to any Office, Den, Living Room, Study, etc. And would make a great gift for your favorite collector. To meet my very high standard of quality, every process in the re-furbishing of this elegant showpiece was completed entirely by hand.
If compared side-by-side with others on the market, I think you would agree - These are better than new. My cases are stronger, better built and higher quality. They are more beautiful and pleasing to look at. The custom built interior is vastly superior to the assembly line cases.
And, mine are heirloom quality and built to last for generations. I could not find a quality, attractive and functional pen chest at an affordable price so I made my own.
Most of my cases start out as 30 to 100 -year-old silverware storage chests. They are ideal for vintage and antique fountain pen and writing instruments collections.
All the refurbishing procedures are completed by hand to ensure the finished product lives up to my high standards. First, I disassemble the case and remove all the interior materials. Then I strip the exterior of any decades old varnish, paint or stain and sand it by hand down to new wood to prepare it for staining.
The stains and methods I use enhance the grains and the exterior is protected with at least 15 coats of hand-applied polyurethane. Check out the Before and After photo to see the difference. The case is then re-assembled. Because chests come in many sizes the interior is completely custom built by hand. The fabric is furniture grade ultra-soft faux suede and the medallion is a semi-precious gemstone.If you or somebody you know deserve the best. To ensure the highest standard of quality, every process in the re-furbishing of this elegant showpiece was completed entirely by hand.
I have many customers that own two, three or even four of my cases. Please let me know if you have specific needs in a storage / display case. I will research, recommend, design and custom build a chest to your specs if it is within my areas of expertise. Below are just a few of the feedback I have received.
It is beautiful, a work of art! It is beyond my expectations! You, sir, are not only a craftsman, but a master craftsman of the old, old school. There are very few people like you. This belongs in a museum and when I pass, it will be willed to a museum as an outstanding example of master restoration.
Your name as the craftsman will be permanent mounted in the chest. I will proudly display it and when it goes on display, in a month or so when I have time to take my pens out of storage, I will send you a photo.Use me as a reference in any way that you want. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul! Good morning Larry Just to say that the pen storage chest arrived yesterday and is absolutely excellent. You must have put many hours of effort into bringing it to this condition and your craftsmanship is well rewarded. It will just about cover my immediate need but I may well have to contact you in the future if the collection hopefully!
Many thanks and kind regards. I'll be following your auctions in the future, as I need a few more cases, and hopefully you'll be listing some that hold more pens.
I'm a repeat customer d6. This piece is even more beautiful in person! Larry is truly an amazing craftsman. Absolutely beautiful and quality work. Truly a piece to keep forever. Wonderful job restoring this chest, great packaging to keep it safe. Came a long way to Australia with Incredible packaging. WOW what a beautiful pen cabinet!It is really beautiful and bigger than I thought it would be. And Exactly What I Was Looking For.
I start with silverware storage cases. First, I take the case apart and remove all the interior materials. The fabric is ultra-soft faux suede and the medallion is a semi-precious gemstone.
