Ok, a customer of mine has these three chairs made out of cherry trees. They cost mega thousands. The finish was nasty in several spots. They asked me if I could refresh it some. Holy crap. So I ordered countertop epoxy and went to work. The results were stunning This is one chair  The other two chairs were similar but they had these wide arms that are like a small table top. I think a cat got to them  After sanding and staining to match the rest of the chair this is how it came out.   This is the set of three chairs  |

I’m in the process of making seat decks and then they will have pads made to fit. They will be very comfortable actually when it’s all said and done |

Well the reason for the sprucing up is to ready them for sale. Just saying. I have no idea what they will want but if it’s thousands and thousands they will sit on them (pun intended) for a long while and then they will have to come down if they want to get rid of them |

my limited experience buying furniture used is does not go for much people who think 1000's are more likely to get 100's...
We just bought for my kid buying a house a nice set of high table top with 4 chairs that slide underneath asking 125 bucks got them for 100 bucks. Am sure cost 250-300 new total only 6 years old not much use few top minor scratches is all. Owner did not know how to screw in with allen wrench and phillips screwdriver the supports of legs and 4 chairs had to tighten them all up since were wobbly when I sat on the chairs pointing that out to the owner to get my price down to 100 bucks.
