Hi I'm Kuuga238

I recently gained an interest in furnitures because I live with my grandmother who have kept her furnitures from the 1960s.

I'm from Brunei where back in the day it was heavily influenced by the British and the Dutch due to Oil and Gas.

I am keen on restoring them but I have no one to approach in terms of identifying the origins of the furniture.

please refer to the photos below and thank you for your help!

Welcome. Lots of elbow grease. Refinishing is not hard . I learned watching my mom . There are probably good youtube videos. Is the table stripped of it's original finish?

 

Greetings!

 

Welcome. If you want some feedback on your table, repost it in the furniture thread.
