Can anyone tell me if this is veneer?
Hi all, I’m thinking about refinishing a piece of furniture. I’m trying to figure out if it has veneer on top. Anyone an expert here?

Yellowing varnish on veneered cabinet
Hello - advice needed on fixing yellowed varnish on kitchen cabinets. I sourced a beautiful greyish-silver-blue veneer, had it professionally pressed, and made it into cabinets. The sun has yellowed the varnish, turning them seafoam green, which clashes with my tiles and overkill estheitic I designed and worked hard on. Need to rescue original the original color, would be great if it can be done with without dissambleing the doors as some are pocketed ,also there are the sides one of which is 270cmx62

You Can Recover
Just wanted to say it's not always the end. You can endure. You can recover. Stay strong. It took way more work but I think we saved her. She'll be a great coffee table.

Is this table veneer or solid wood?
I've gone back and forth on this table for years. It's got a lot of wear from the kids, and trying to decide how to best tackle the clean-up. Any advice would be appreciated!

Welp, guess that's it then
We've had this table in my family since 2013 or so, and we ended up taking it with us once my (now) wife and I moved out. Decided recently to finally try to sand and refinish this old thing. I already knew it had some bad scratches, but I guess in my attempt to actually level it out I sanded too much off. In retrospect I probably could have just filled in some of them, but it hadn't occured to me at the time
Am I screwed?

Sanding gone wrong ?
Bought a vintage school table.
Wanted to sand it to give it a new skin.
Seems the previous owner used a thick layer of varnish on it.
The wood underneath is looking crazy. I can continue sanding to get it clean but the wood on the desk is not the same as the wood on the seat.. how do I get them to be the same color ?
It’s looking like layers of plywood on both.
