I would price it between $850- $1200 but I hope the original owners reclaim it. Andie you are quickly becoming a master refinisher/reimaginer. Your staging is flawless. So many ideas for how to use this piece.

    Took me a few minutes to pick my jaw up off the floor! What a facelift this old gal got. I cannot believe that the veneer could be repaired so perfectly. Truly beautiful now and I think those small imperfections make this little lady have even more character. I'm not great at pricing antique restorations but surely it would bring at least $500. I see there are some estimates here that are double that and I am not surprised. Great job on this Andy. Thank goodness Vinnie is there to guard against cat drawer attacks!

    Hi Andy, when I was in school about 45 years ago, there was an older boy named Everett. I believe he had dropped out, but he was one of the most beautiful, guys I had ever seen. Your Everett made me think of him. Beautiful with some minor, rough spots for interest and mystery that don’t detract from the overall look. I have no idea what furniture goes for, but I would think Everett is worth at least 800 dollars. I do adore your videos. They are so entertaining. I look forward to them the way I look forward to a new movie with a favorite actor. Thank you for sharing your talents. Hugs, Julie 🥰

The pulls were a brilliant choice. I never would have thought of such a bold choice but they set off the whole piece perfectly. I am always excited when a new Furniture Fables comes out.

And Oh Andy the final result is so beautiful 😍 By the way in my area you wouldn’t be able to sell it for it’s value, but in KC to the right person it’s worth at least $1,500 as an entry way piece.

    It’s beautiful Andy. I’d call it, half restoration, half renovation. A restovation! 😂 Whatever we call it… I call it stunning. Having done many battered pieces, I know how much work went into it, and it shows. Good enough? I should say so! The green is perfect. I would have done the same, with the frame. Some cringe at paint, but sometimes, it just makes perfect sense. The only thing that is slightest bit detracting, is the top. New veneer, it would be a home run. But that would have added quite a bit expense, not to mention time. Walnut veneer doesn’t come cheap, and you’d never recoup to cost. All and all…$750, the way it sits. It’s a beautiful piece, anyone would be proud to own. Nicely done!

    Saving the veneer makes this piece extra special. The paint colors look perfect too. So much labor to save this piece. Pricing is hard it depends on the market place. Somewhere in the $500-$900 ranges. I realize that is a wide range but I don't know your market. The most value I gain so much appreciation with all the wok that goes into restoring pieces of furniture. You put much thought into your work.

    WOW. I am speechless. This is a STUNNING restoration!! I kept waiting for you to just scrap restoring the veneer because of all the damage, but I’m so glad you didn’t. I think this is my favorite piece of yours. I hope you don’t sell it for less than $1000, because that was labor-intensive and I know there will be buyers who will appreciate the time & care & thought that went into not only the restoration process, but all the design choices. I wish I could buy it!

I think this is one of your best works of art to date. I’m in love with it! That being said, I feel you should ask at least $600.00 for it. And that is actually a low price! The transformation is amazing. I’d love to recommend “Transcend Furniture Gallery “ to you since Angie also repairs furniture! I don’t think she uses anything other than Odie’s.

    This is a gorgeous furniture flip! It is stunning. The color green Everet goes so well with the walnut veneer. The gold knobs are worth every penny. I hope the family takes it back or the daughter wants it for some day. Then the 30 hours of sanding will be worth it. Great job! You are too hard on yourself to say that it is "good enough." If priced it should be close to a $1000. The bow dresser is a real find. It hits my classic style very well. Great job!

All of my furniture was passed down from our family and all of it is now over 100 years old. Our upright piano just turned 120 this year! I've done my best to keep it all looking beautiful and so far, so good. The chest is stunning and you put so much love into it, I can't imagine a price. I am interested in what you do with it though. You are so talented, it is amazing what you do with all of the pieces you work on. I am in awe of your work. And, of course, the music was great!! Congratulations!

    This has got to be one of my very favorites. I just love the beautiful wood grain framed by the painted wood. Can’t believe you were able to take that poor sad beat-up dresser and not just restore it but actually improve it from its original state. My DIL has a lovely mid century modern dresser with some cracked veneer - I’m going to send her a link to this. Some of the veneer on hers is beyond repair but most is in much better shape than what you dealt with. Hope this will inspire her! At least $500. At least! I’d go higher except that, to be fair, some of the repairs are epoxy and wood filler so they’re not in the original materials. Not a criticism at all. To re-veneer and put in carved wood replacement pieces for the trim and the paw feet (which have toe nails no less!) would probably cost so much that the piece would be entirely unaffordable. Your redo is both beautiful and creative and if I lived near you and had any room in my house, I’d rush over to buy it before someone else got it!

    Beautiful job, Andy! I was mentally preparing to unsubscribe if you’d have painted that figured walnut, but I knew better! There was nothing ‘wrong’ with the wood on the frame but it was literally nothing special - painting it in Everett was the right choice to frame the walnut. Crafting an escutcheon from Bondo was genius!!! The pulls are great, but just a *little* too big for my taste; regardless of my taste, it looks fantastic! I’d ask $800-900 and you should get that easily. I think this is my favorite piece by you…❤ The walnut is so amazing, thank you😊
