Windsor Chair Finishes
At M&E Gummel Chairworks we use old fashioned milk paint on our Benchmade Windsor chairs and Colonial dining tables, just as the old master Windsor chair makers did. We use old fashioned milk paint to achieve the powdered, patina finish that you would find on period furniture. Whether applied in one coat or layers of authentic, Colonial colors the natural texture of the wood remains. Each piece is hand rubbed as though years of use had worn the arms & spindles to a warm polish. Add a century of age to your chair by choosing our aged finish. Feel free to request a color swatch to help you with your choices. Because we mix our own pigments we can offer to you almost any custom color that you desire.
