Waterfall handles are often Art Deco or Nouveau in style. Any combination of metals, wood, and and plastics yes, Bakelite, too were used to create the often sculptural handles and pulls.
Scalloped edging or detailed inlay patterns were also not uncommon. Due to the thin veneers and brittle glue, waterfall pieces can become quite marred. There are techniques antique restorers and woodworkers can use to repair damage to a veneered piece, but most waterfall furniture items are not worth enough to justify this expense. The cost usually seems warranted only if a piece has particular sentimental value. We usually think of waterfall pieces in terms of bedroom furniture, but keep in mind that living room pieces were also popular radio cabinets, bars and credenzas come to mind.

Original yellow glass mirror trim. Custom made glass for the tops of the dresser. Bureau, and two night stands. Inside of Armoire is made of cedar. The gorgeous hardware was painted out the same color as the dresser. For the final touch; a wood applique. I painted the applique in GF Linen and I really like this look. It adds a vintage element and contrast in design. I think my original opinion on waterfall dressers just may have changed.
Like it? Hate it? Neutral like Switzerland? Like what you see? Also GF spotted my business page awhile ago and they asked me to try their paint. Linen Thank you for sharing!!! Thank you!!! Have you used a top coat on the dresser? Can I wax on top of the milk paint or no? For almost two years now, since I have started refinishing furniture, I only use Annie Sloan products.
And yes, you can wax-topcoat milk paint. Hi Denise, your finished piece is stunning. I have several Waterfall dressers and mirrors that were given to me as I do like that fauex Art Deco look.
Q — since these pieces are made of laminate, is it ok to sand? Can you let me know before I start my very first adventure in refinishing my dressers?
