A good table has a great value, that is why a good table is expensive. First, it is the wood, to make a good quality table craftsmen take completely dry slabs. Did you know, for example, an oak slab has to dry about 12 years and for the walnut it takes about 8 years. Second, how the table is done, how much effort and skills have to be applied in order to make one. Such tables will serve for several generations. The only thing that can become old and scratchy is the surface. So people come to refinish the table surface and it is as new again.
In general, restoration is not only an interesting, but also quite a useful process. Thanks to it, you can get strong, comfortable furniture at an affordable price, or, conversely, get funds for updating and selling something that is no longer relevant to you.

A century or two ago our ancestors passed on the wooden furniture sets from generation to generation. In the modern world, according to statistics furniture sets change on average 2-3 times in 45-50 years. It is often difficult to part with old furniture - either it is dear to a memory, or it keeps special comfort and you don’t want to part with it. Nowadays, you don’t need to get rid of it but give your wonderful set a second life by refinishing/restoring it.
