The Resplendent Crow

My husband and I found a piece at a local antique mall. We knew we wanted to change the look, but had never heard of lacquer at that point. I stumbled upon The Resplendent Crow on Instagram. After watching Instagram stories and seeing how thorough their processes are, I knew I wanted them to lacquer our piece. Additionally, our piece was missing some fretwork. The Resplendent Crow team has true craftsman that were able to recreate these details. They set off the piece. The transformation is incredible!

Sucheta was very responsive. I was shocked by how quickly they turned this piece around. They picked up our piece on August 24th and delivered it on October 8th. The shipping team was great as well.

We highly recommend The Resplendent Crow!

Sucheta and her amazing team have lacquered some gorgeous furniture for our new apartment! They took items I found in thrift stores and Home Depot and totally transformed them into custom gems. I also purchased a dresser from her Etsy shop and it was delivered the next day! (It helps to live close to The Resplendent Crow’s shop!) They’re even fixing a mirror for me that got busted en route from eBay, to be lacquered a rooster red. If you’re thinking about chalk painting that garage sale “find” just DON’T. Call this shop instead.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Resplendent Crow and its owner Sucheta! Forever grateful to them and I am absolutely obsessed with my new dresser!

I had been wanting a custom piece from them for almost 3 years and finally found the right one at the right time and went for it. Every step of the way Sucheta kept me informed and helped me make decisions. When I was looking for a specific color that wasn't one from her regular colors, she had my color made. When I went back and forth about what hardware to get, she took photos to help me decide. When I had to deal with delivery requirements from my building, she helped me get the paperwork I needed in time. And she never seemed frustrated by my countless emails of questions, just helped me find answers.

Can some of the pieces be expensive? Yes, if you, like me, are used to buying Ikea rubbish. But the RC's pieces are forever furniture and no more expensive than any other quality furniture place. And they are a million times more unique and available in the most fabulous colors! (Which is so rare!! I can't tell you how hard it is to find colorful, quality furniture.)

Almir, the delivery guy, (who was also absolutely wonderful!) jokingly said he'll probably see me again sometime, bc so many people once they've had one furniture piece made, love it so much that they get another. And he's absolutely right! The dresser I got is so unique and so gorgeous, it makes some of my other furniture look lame haha. So, I'm already wanting to get another! Now, I just need to get a place big enough to keep all my RC furniture.

Just revived my delivery today, absolutely stunning! Love, love, love the orange color and quality. I will purchase another piece from Sucheta. Great customer service. It came with a care kit and instructions as well. Highly, highly recommend!

My experience working with Sucheta has been a delightful and positive one. From selecting the colors of the various pieces to arranging delivery. The pieces are stunning. I bought a China cabinet, oversized night tables, and a credenza. The Ruby on my credenza took my breath away, the China cabinet is white and she surprised me with a magnificent wall paper and lights with remote control. For the nigh tables I chose olive and I’m happy that i did, they are gorgeous. This awesome experience has me waiting for a few more pieces. Thank you for the caring you’ve shown me; plus the delivery guys were as professional as they get. Overall I’m 100% satisfied. Happy, happy!

I absolutely love my chest of drawers! I was looking for a green piece for my bedroom and couldn't find one that I liked. The communication was great and Sucheta was always responsive in a timely manner. She was clear about what I should expect regarding delivery. The delivery driver was also great with communication and a very nice guy. This is actually my second purchase as mom has a smaller dresser from here too, very classy cute - similar positive experience. Quality work. Highly recommended and worth every penny.

Sucheta was great and easy to work with - she answered my questions super quickly and my furniture was ready and shipped in the timeframe she gave me. The lacquered nightstands are gorgeous and the delivery was great as well - the communication via text to coordinate dropping off was so helpful. I hope to order more from The Resplendent Crow in the future!

Recently received my 2nd piece of furniture from Sucheta at Resplendent Crow. I love that Sucheta uses solid, well-crafted pieces, and her shop's artistry is excellent. This piece is flawless and beautiful like the first. Sucheta was responsive to questions, quick to deliver, and kind enough to send me touch up paint for the first piece, which was nicked by my daughter.

Just received my 3rd delivery from The Resplendent Crow -- another fantastic piece! Suchetta has been extremely easy to work with and great about suggestions. We have 2 pieces from her shop and she updated one piece out of our attic. Communication was clear and proactive. I also have big praise for Al and the delivery process. Overall excellent experience and I am sure to order again.

I received my first piece from The Resplendent Crow today & I couldn’t be more pleased! It’s SO incredibly beautiful and exactly what I wanted and expected! It couldn’t be more perfect. It has so much character and the finish is immaculate. This will not be the only piece I purchase from here & I am already keeping my eye open for my next purchase!

On a side note, the whole process went very smoothly- from purchasing, to receiving an update on shipping status, to the delivery; I received a response promptly every time I had an inquiry. The delivery men were great and as a bonus, they gave us several updates throughout their journey- which was very much appreciated!

Sucheta was so wonderful to work with. Her honestly and patience made this entire process a dream. I am thrilled we pulled the trigger on this beautiful piece… it’s a show stopper!

I've purchased more than 12 pieces of custom lacquered furniture from Sucheta at The Resplendent Crow. Her work is excellent and I've never had a single issue. She communicated frequently throughout our transactions and if I had any questions she was prompt and responsive. She knows her products and makes helpful suggestions. People always comment on my lacquered furniture and I recommend her frequently. I can't imagine being any happier with the finished product that is delivered. Looking forward to our next project..... maybe a bamboo desk😁?

I found The Resplendent Crow on Instagram, when I noticed several designers that I follow used the company's pieces in their work for clients. We had just moved into a new house, and because of supply issues related to covid-19, ordering new furniture was a nightmare. I decided to purchase a sideboard and china cabinet from Sucheta. Before they were delivered, I added a couple of guest room dressers to my order. The delivery experience was excellent, thanks to Al and his helper. They made an adjustment to the china cabinet door and apologized for bringing the wrong glass shelves (which were delivered via FedEx a short time later). I had chosen a mix of classic and chinoiserie-style pieces and requested a different paint color for every piece. The sideboard has original hardware that was re-plated in polished nickel, the china cabinet has vintage brass hardware that was not original to the piece, and the two dressers have modern hardware. All four pieces of furniture are gorgeous! So gorgeous, in fact, that when I saw a ready-to-ship chest on Sucheta's Instagram stories, I didn't hesitate to purchase it! When Al delivered the chest, he picked up a French Provincial dresser that I recently inherited and brought it back to me this past weekend; it looks absolutely amazing! If you like classic furniture with a modern touch, you will fall in love with pieces that you cannot find anywhere else. I like having a mix of old and new furniture in my home, and guests always compliment my lacquered pieces and want to know where I got them. I recommend Sucheta and The Resplendent Crow team without hesitation!

Our end tables arrived, and they’re more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! Your delivery drivers were beyond helpful, personable, and if they had had the time available I would have asked them to stay with our family for dinner. A+ experience from start to finish! You and your company deserve every success that comes your way!

I only wish I could give Sucheta more than 5 stars. Everything about this purchase was splendid. My designer is in Seattle, I’m in Dallas and Sucheta is in St Louis. Easy to coordinate and the quality is excellent. Cannot say enough. I am beyond satisfied!

There is nothing like a custom piece of furniture and this little beauty is all glossy and gorgeous! I worked with Sucheta to select the paint and mailed the wallpaper I had selected directly to her. The shipper delivered this piece in perfect shape to her new home in California and I will most certainly order more items again. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

I am so happy with the piece that I purchased from The Resplendent Crow. They did an excellent job, quality work! I would order from here again before ordering from somewhere local. Many places claim to refinish furniture, but not all will do the same level of detailed and unique work. It was well worth shipping all the way to NC!

Just received my piece from The Resplendent Crow and absolutely Love it! Such a beautiful piece and so enjoyed working with Sucheta! She was wonderful! And the delivery was perfect! Will definitely be buying another piece from her in the near future for sure! Love! Love! Love!

I have recently purchased a piece from Sucheta and The Resplendent Crow for my living room. Her work is impeccable and the final product is absolutely stunning. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone looking to add character to their home.

I bought a pair of vintage Henry Link Bali Hai, mid century faux bamboo nightstands and absolutely could not be happier. The color we chose was applied beautifully and the lacquer was top quality. They even include some extra in case you need to do touch ups! When I ordered I was leaving soon to go out of the country and Sucheta went out of her way to make sure they arrived before I left, and she was super helpful and responsive the entire process through! The nightstands are absolutely gorgeous and have that custom look that is so unique and a true statement piece. Great quality, beautiful end result and top notch service, i am so happy the way everything turned out!!
