I've bought this second hand table and 6 chairs. The chairs are wonderful and most of the table top is. However, there is an area where the varnish, or whatever protective layer is on old tables, seems to have either melted or been worn away. It looked as though something had been spilled and made some splashes.
We are so nervous about spoiling the rest of the thing that we don't quite know what to do. If we must, we'll live with it as it is but I thought that someone with knowledge would be able to advise us.
The table is solid wood - oak we think.
