If you love art and love your furniture to look outstanding and different from the normal chest and dresser, then a distressed finish is a perfect choice. The distressed finish is a technique that is used to give new furniture an aged appearance.

This feature is also eye-catching because users can customize it by their wish or preference. Old dresser and chest can also be renewed, and one can give them a distressed look.
