Question
We have just recently sanded down our old antique table that was recently given to us by my husbands grandmother, and I have bought brand new chairs for the table that have the espresso color to them. But I cant find the espresso color for the table. So my question is what color would be best for the table, and do you know of anywhere I could find the espresso stain for the table?             Thankyou, Sabrina Oppegaard

Answer
Hi Sabrina
Nice to hear from you.
Sabrina if you go to this site and scroll down almost to the bottom you will see your espresso stain.

Hi..I can answer most questions about the repairing,stripping and refinishing of all your old furniture and wood items(the things we call antiques)I can give advice about what to buy/avoid at auctions/flea markets. I do not give appraisals on antiques.

Experience

I have been refinishing antiques for the past 30yrs. While I have taken several courses over the years,I have found that "hands on" learning is the best teacher. Perhaps I can help you avoid some of the mistakes I made while learning.
