Refinishing Details
This vintage mid-century drinks cabinet with its sleek lines, perfect proportions and beautiful grain has been completely transformed by the beautiful geometrics and navy blue, copper and teal of this PLUTO wallpaper from Mini Moderns.
The P.L.U.T.O. print is named after the Pipe Line Under The Ocean - a WW2 fuel line built under the English Channel from Dungeness to the French coast to supply fuel to the allied D-Day invasion army.
The pipeline is represented by a continuous copper line, running diagonally across a background inspired by 'dazzle' camouflage featured on military vessels during the two world wars.
The wallpaper design also features circular and curved motifs based on the three Dungeness 'Sound Mirrors'.
I've paired the stunning grain with some beautiful paint effects mirroring the wallpaper design. A modern beauty that still retains the character of the original 1960s cabinet.
