<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 288437, member: 37&quot;]Can&#039;t add too much to what has already been said.&nbsp; Probably last quarter of the 19th century for a date.&nbsp; It is possible that this could have lead paint.&nbsp; As noted above, unless someone is gnawing on the table, there is not much of a problem.&nbsp; An added measure would be to make sure any loose chipping paint is removed (outside with a mask) and then, clear-coat it with a varnish or lacquer.&nbsp; This would seal it, add an extra barrier, and help with the musty smell.&nbsp; Clear coating inside and out is the best way to remove odors for good.&nbsp; There are matte and satin finish varnishes that will retain an antique look.&nbsp; The other option is to strip and refinish back to a natural wood look.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
