Hardwood Furniture Custom Finishes: Two-Tone and Burnishing

Here we are showing a table and chairs whose custom finishes match them uniquely to each other. The set has a two-tone finish.

The black table base is modern and makes the stained top more lively. The matching chair has a black base and back, and stained seat. For more character, the stained parts are burnished.

Burnishing is a simple process but the results are brilliant. Once the furniture is stained and dry, mix more stain with black paint and gently feather it on the right places with a rag. Your burnished details have more depth, as shown on the rounded table edge and contoured chair seat. Burnishing is also a useful antiquing technique for distressed furniture.
