The worn patina of this carpenter's workbench is a reflection of its age and years of use. Every ding, scratch, gouge, and stain enrich the character and appeal of this old work table which still maintains the original brick red/brown painted finish along the base and some of the top. 
Please examine the close up photos to appreciate the patina and joints. The traditional recessed tray was filled in with a solid piece of wood, allowing this 18" deep console to serve well as a level display table. No vices.
Narrow workbenches such as this are often used as a console or sofa table in today's home.
This old carpenter's workbench has been cleaned and waxed; it is strong, stable and ready to be placed and enjoyed.
All scratches, cracks, dings, and age related separation are reflective of age and do not detract from the appeal nor function of this rustic console table.
