This piece came damaged but Wayfair immediately replaced it. It comes very unfinished and unsealed. It is perfect for the small area just inside our front door. I wanted more of a coastal look, than a farmhouse look, so I made some changes. Sanded this table to smooth out rough edges and splinters, then wiped down. Stained with a grey barnwood stain, then dry-brushed with a white primer. Used some greys, tans, browns and even some light blue and black to give it an aged look. Sealed with a clear, matte polyeurothane. Lastly, added felt sliders on the bottom to level it out so it doesn't rock. Love this table!
