Like a lot of heirloom furniture, this table had seen better days. It's surface was marred by years of use and needed to be stripped. I removed the old stain finish and replaced it with an updated stain more resistant to wear and tear. It has some minor damage to the wood that was sanded and repaired prior to refinishing. I can apply this same technique to new or antique furniture, as well as a variety of other painted finishes.
