Upcycled Black Bureau with Decoupage Detail

Upcycled Black Bureau

This upcycled bureau is more than just a functional piece of furniture—it's a true work of art. Rescued and thoughtfully restored, this unique writing desk was given new life with stunning decoupage detailing and a sleek black finish, making it a standout addition to any home or office.

At first glance, this bureau may seem simple, but upon closer inspection, its intricate craftsmanship shines through. The decoupage design is a clever and beautiful mix of animal illustrations, featuring giraffes, zebras, and two majestic lion heads prominently displayed on the cupboard doors. The textured design is perfectly balanced—not too bold, yet striking enough to be noticed and admired.

The black bureau is painted in Rustoleum's Carbon Satin Paint, offering a soft, subtle sheen that complements the decoupage details. We've added a touch of antique gold to the trims, elevating the piece with a hint of luxury and elegance.

Inside the bureau, the polished green leather writing surface sits securely on two sliding supports, providing a comfortable and stylish workspace. There are two small, black drawers and additional shelving space in the original wood, all accented with a light coat of antique gold trim for added refinement.

The bureau features a spacious cupboard below the pull-down desk, with double doors—one of which is secured with a functional catch. Inside, you'll find a removable shelf and a painted black interior, beautifully coordinating with the decoupage design and gold accents.

We are so passionate about upcycling vintage furniture, and this bureau was a perfect candidate for restoration. By preserving its original charm while enhancing it with modern touches, we’ve created a stunning, one-of-a-kind piece. This decoupage bureau is a perfect blend of art, function, and sustainability.
