I sold this table to a client 35 years ago and was refinished at that time and they kept the table pads on all the time. There is a slight crack in the table top which can be typical when solids are forced to conform and is not worth refinishing because it will just come back and the client stated that was there when they purchased it from me years ago.. This is a one of a kind table being sold mahogany it has quite a bit of weight. less
