Hi ! You can get wood putty and mold it into the chipped area , then sand it to make it look like it is the right fit then stain it , matching the color of your furniture !
Some wood putty is tinted to wood colors. A good match will save you some work. Otherwise, find a neutral color putty and mix a small amount with a stain that matches your furniture. With latex gloves on, mix a small amount of putty and stain. Work a small amount into your damaged area, trying to keep it as flat to the surface as possible so you won't have to sand. I use a metal, narrow, paint scraper. Carefully work it smooth. Still doesn't match? Make careful repairs on all damaged areas. Let dry. Then, sand the entire surface and restain the entire surface with a gel stain. Painted surfaces are basically the same, but, simpler.
Wood putty will fill in. Make sure it is stained to match before you apply. It does not take stain when dry.

good luck !!!
I’ve seen repair putty in various colors, hopefully there’s one that matches your piece.
Jackie: wood putty is what you need! (Then the easiest thing is to paint it)

Without knowing how big the chips are...
The pro furniture restorers like colored putty that is a two/parts in a Tootsie Roll kind of shape, that they cut off what they need and kneed it.
