Turn up the style in your home with this stunning Upcycled Metro Unit — a one-of-a-kind mid-century piece professionally transformed by Pinkyswifts, a UK furniture artist known for bold design and sophisticated, contemporary flair.
Perfect for anyone searching for unique vintage furniture, statement décor, or sustainably upcycled sideboards, this piece brings instant personality and elegance to any modern interior.
Originally a classic mid-century display unit with sliding glass doors, the Metro Unit has been reimagined for today’s interiors. The old doors have been removed, and the unit has been meticulously hand-painted using Fusion Mineral Paint and Frenchic metallics in shades of white, black, grey, and rose gold, creating an intricate Art Deco-inspired design that’s truly eye-catching. The original handles have been elegantly highlighted in rose gold, adding a touch of vintage charm to this contemporary masterpiece.
Finished with a protective matt topcoat, the Metro Unit is perfect for modern living, protecting it from the thrills and spills of a busy household. Ideal as a focal point in a hall, entrance, living room, or family room, it offers both practical storage and bold artistic impact — perfect for displaying books, cherished mementoes, or stylish glassware.
