This solid Oak Trolley has been tastefully and completely stripped and restored to retain where possible it’s age (2 1/2 days’ work). After the item was stripped etc. it was finished with 3 applications of a heat and spirit resistant lacquer 20% sheen so the finish is both attractive and will stand up to the rigors of use restaurant or domestic. The finish is mature natural medium oak but I have totally left the finish colour as is i.e. natural. There is no repair work or colour matching applied at all , the colour is the woods natural colour throughout. There is a lowered lip at one end of all of the trolley trays I assume to help slide items out during use. The process I have used as you can see also enhances the natural flower of the oak. I believe the wheels have been replaced; when I put them back after restoration there were marks from another set of fitted wheels or feet which did not match the ones currently fixed. The wheels are more modern I believe than the trolley itself. They are also slightly sprung so the trolley can take slight bumps/ slightly uneven ground - which is a nice touch. As usual the finish was applied by hand.
