I have a dining room table soon to be listed on an auction website but havnt got a clue what it is. I will link a post to it once its on but it is a deep brown with a tinge of red. Anyone know what its likelyto be, thanks.
* There is the link with a picture. Please dont take this off admin as it is in no way taking any business from yourselves, just helps with my enquiry. [Edited by: admin]
Is it all the same wood? The corner of the table has some damage which shows a very light colour underneath. Would suggest it may be just a red stain.
My guess is it won't be solid timber as in 'mahogany' but possibly a cheaper hardwood on the lipping and legs, and chair backs. the table is probably MDF with veneered top. Why lip a beautiful hardwood table, otherwise ?
Underneath the table, rub excessively a small area with sandpaper, this will probably expose chipboard underneath, proving it is just a veneered finish.
fella came into the joinery i worked a few years back, had a stain on the table and asked the boss of the joinery if we could put it under the power sander to take it out. Boss told him it was a veneered table but the guy (his mate) insisted we do it saying he'd paid good money for it and was solid timber...."feel the weight of that" he said. Couple of runs, all good. Fella says' "one more time please" ooops, there ya go mate, veneered as we said
