Repairing small chips on Walnut cabinet dresser?
I brought this lovely second hand antique French dresser; it's in lovely condition except for a few chips here and there. What is the best way to repair it? Special varnish? Some kind of wood filler? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance- Rhianna x
If your dresser is an expensive antique then you will need to have it professionally restored as you will devalue it if you carry out DIY repairs. I the veneer has been chipped then this has to be properly restored, your walnut dresser will most certainly be french polished and not varnished again seek advise from a professional french polisher. Remember that you are a custodian of your antique furniture and
the best way to enjoy it is to treat it with great respect it will reward you by increasing in value enjoy your lovely antique
