<p>[QUOTE="mark737, post: 3607320, member: 14894"]If it were mine, I'd just try to touch up the damaged areas as best I could with a matching stain. It looks like the damaged areas are pretty small and wouldn't be hard to make much less noticeable. As wiscbirddog says, these chests are not very valuable and stripping all the veneer off and refinishing is a lot of work with uncertain results. I see similar "waterfall" style chests at thrift stores regularly in Texas for under $100.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
