[QUOTE="RobW, post: 9687445, member: 84629"]I have a lovely old oak chest that needs a bit of T&C - see the attached photo. I want to tidy the top up but without losing the character and patina of it. Does anyone have any tips and thoughts on how I would be best to go about this? Also, as shown in the photo, the lid is unusually hinges towards the middle allowing just above half of the top to lift. Any thoughts on why it was made this way and what it was used for? Thanks[/QUOTE]
