The Dawn
An Original Hand-Painted Mid-Century Sideboard
By Furniture Artist Chloe Kempster
A stunning mid-century sideboard, upcycled and hand-painted by Chloe Kempster, reimagined as a vibrant piece of functional art. Dating from the 1950s–1960s, this sideboard has been transformed with a dreamy, layered colour-block effect, turning a classic retro piece into a captivating statement for your home.
The exterior is painted in smooth black eggshell, framing the central artwork beautifully. The hand-painted section layers dark green, pink, coral, jade, and purple to create an abstract scene full of depth, movement, and mood. Finished with a protective topcoat, the vibrant colours are safeguarded against everyday use, making this both practical and eye-catching.
With cupboard and drawer storage and iconic retro legs, this versatile piece could work as a sideboard, a dressing table, or a display for bottles and decorative objects. The slightly lower central section adds a playful yet practical element, making it perfect for modern living spaces that crave colour and personality.
Signed by Chloe Kempster, this sideboard is truly one-of-a-kind, a joyful celebration of mid-century design, contemporary artistry, and expert craftsmanship. It will bring energy, colour, and charm to any interior.
