This was a great find in my local Rowcroft charity shop, so ONLY ONE AVAILABLE!

Originally made by IKEA as a tall storage cupboard with 2 drawers (see last pics). Its made from 28mm thick veneered oak panels jointed with solid metal connectors.

So firstly, I dismantled the unit into its panels to clean and strip them of the heavy dark stain.

The original plastic feet had to be remove and oak plugs used to fill the holes(left side).

The inside faces were then painted with 2 coats of Frenchic Blackjack eco emulsion, then polished for a high quality robust finish.

I then applied 3 coats of dark linseed oil to the outside faces to nourish the wood and give it a contemporary finish. Beeswax was used to polish.

I have added solid black metal angled hairpin legs to hold the unit firm with superb style.

Each compartment holds 100 LPs , so 200 in total.
It will happily take all bottle sizes too as a drinks cabinet.

Measures: 80cm width, 62cm high (41.5cm without legs) and 40cm deep.

COSTING- 10 hours labour, £27 parts, £8 donation to Rowcroft.

CUSTOM- I can refinish this unit in a different colour if you prefer( £30 extra)
It is also possible for me to make a unit of different sizes, so please ask for a quote.

DELIVERY- Delivery outside mainland UK is based on the Volumetric weight (cubic dimensions).

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Custom and personalised orders

    I am always receiving requests for customised work so I do welcome a challenge 😀 If you would like something made to your specs then just ask, i would love to see your idea.

    Commonly people ask for shelves, bookcases or cabinets to be a little larger, in a special colour, unpainted or with different accessories.

    Custom orders usually take a little longer to make and cost a little extra so please ask for a quote.

    Sizing details

    Sizes are quoted in metric, usually cm.

    Where sizes are referred to as small, medium and large it would be the medium or regular size that is most popular or commonly purchased.

    Sometimes we have to limit the size of larger items to 115cm in length due to the cost of delivery, especially when it is to be sent outside the UK. If you would like an item made larger than this we would have to confirm the delivery cost for you.

    Allow a slight variation in sizes of recycled timber crafts due to the nature and availability of wood used.

    The shipping price seems a little high, why is that?

    Cost of delivery is calculated on the parcels volumetric weight, which is its measurements multiplied together divided by 5000. Large parcels will then have a much higher cost compared to smaller ones.

    Also, the price includes the cost of the high quality recycled packaging that I use to avoid damaged items.

    We can offer discounts for shipping when you buy more than one item as often the volume can be condensed by packing then together.
