What is the exact material of the table?
You can either sand it down and paint with a primer and latex paint or re-stain the table, or you can give it a light sand to even it out (maybe even using some wood filler for larger nicks - apply filler and then sand down when dry to even out your surface), and then paint with chalk paint or mineral fusion paint - which both require less sanding and prep. If this is veneer you will need to read up on sanding a veneer surface first, as opposed to an all wood table.
Are those real wood pegs or joints in the tabletop? If so, I suggest a good cleaning and sanding, then the wood stain of your choice or something else translucent like Unicorn SPiT. Coat it with a clear sealer. Beautiful top. Best wishes 😇
Nice joinery on the table I like it. Only thing I might do is change the stain color. Strip using a stripper that specifically says it removes stain. If its still too dark, bleach it out with wood bleach, then restain....might look good in Minwax's new grey stain, pickle it white, or another shade.
I love the detail of the dovetails, wouldn't change a thing, its very unique.
until the material of the table is specified the question should not be answered
The design looks nice I would sand the table and re stain
Love it! Please don't paint it! I'd lightly sand it, leave the imperfections and seal it with a low luster polyurethane.
What a great table. If I were you though, I'd first look underneath the table for a maker's mark or label. If there is one, please Google to see if the table may be a valuable antique because removing the finish could damage the value. Otherwise if the table is wood all the way through and not just a veneered top, I'd lightly sand with 220 grit sandpaper and then maybe finish with a 400. Looks like a pretty tight grain. You could rub in a nice tung oil finish and call it a day
