Modern Rustic Black & Wood 5-Drawer Dresser | Solid Pine, Hand-Refinished Tall Chest
Viridian Eclection
The Furniture
A dramatic, one of a kind five drawer dresser in deep charcoal black and glowing amber wood, tall and narrow on a grounded plinth style base.
The case is solid pine finished in a smooth, moody black enamel. The drawer fronts and top are sanded, stained and clear sealed so that every knot, grain line and timeworn mark stays visible.
Across each drawer, smoky brushwork and subtle floral and print transfers create the effect of an old photograph emerging from the wood, part industrial, part antique printmaking. Layered botanical and text motifs give the fronts depth.
Long black metal bar pulls stretch the full width of each drawer, sharpening the silhouette and giving the piece a clean, contemporary edge. The drawers run on metal slides for a smooth, full extension glide.
History & Provenance
The dresser began as a standard late twentieth century pine chest of drawers.
It has been fully reimagined by Viridian Eclection. The strong, solid wood frame is what made it the right canvas for a darker, moodier finish.
The result nods to warehouse lofts and vintage print shops while still reading as a modern heirloom, at home in a contemporary bedroom.

Why It Belongs in Your Home
This is a statement anchor for a bedroom or an entry, a piece that reads as functional art while doing the plain work of storage.
The contrast of inky black against glowing wood suits modern farmhouse, industrial loft and moody vintage interiors alike.
Styled with a large mirror, a sculptural lamp and a few well chosen objects, it becomes the visual center of a room, while quietly swallowing a surprising amount of storage.
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.
White-glove delivery is complimentary within 100 miles of Reno, NV. National shipping quotes provided at checkout. All shipments are photographed and documented. Damage claims must be filed with the carrier; we provide all documentation needed to support your claim.

All antique and vintage items are sold as described and all sales are final. Each listing includes detailed condition notes and photographs so you can make a fully informed decision. We encourage buyers to ask questions — about condition, dimensions, finish, provenance — before purchasing.
Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
