I have the same set of drawers sitting behind me, and I also got a desk in the same range which has split into two lovely bedside chests of drawers. Mine is walnut with black trim. It looks like yours is oak. The drawer fronts would have originally been wood so it might be worth stripping them. Try sanding a patch of the side and dampening it slightly to get an idea of how it will look with the horrible old varnish stripped off and waxed. I found the old varnish came off really easily with sandpaper. My chest of drawers is finished with Fiddes Hard Wax Oil on the drawers and I painted the whole of the carcass black gloss as it needed some filling. I can highly recommend the Hard Wax Oil finish if you can find a small tin. You can paint any colour but I would recommend that you stay with more masculine colours rather than pastels as these are very masculine styled pieces. So, grey blues perhaps rather than baby blue. My own choice might be Swedish Blue from Craig & Rose, with perhaps a very pale grey for the drawers if they couldn't be brought back to the wood. You can use emulsion paints as long as you overcoat that with wax or varnish so the finish will last.

Hi Marisol. Another suggestion to add to the mix. The drawers are set into a full frame. Leave the drawers as they are, the wood grain is beautiful...... Look at taking the drawers out, painting the unit in a cool grey (Farrow & Ball or Little Green) then put the drawers back. The natural wood fronts surrounded by the paint finish will look faaaab. Bigger lamps a must...... Bedding in cool grey with pure white pillows....mmmmmm Try white plantation shutters into the narrow windows above the bed. The headboard needs a focal point, add some artwork, oak frame with a cool grey mount board and white inner bevel.. Hope that helps, Martin: www.angel-martin.com

Such a lovely chest of drawers. It would go beautifully with country house decor. Keep it light with white/off white wardrobes in a traditional style, or shaker style for something still traditional but a little bit more modern. Your choice of green walls sounds lovely. Cromarty by F&B is a lovely soft grey-green. You could then choose soft, slightly faded looking, curtains in a neutral shade with possibly rose pink flowers. If your taste is more modern then of course plain fabrics would do. Here’s some ideas
