question of the day

This is a buffet I inherited from my Grandma and Grandpa.
{I used to have the matching dining room table until Luvpilot's dog chewed the ornately carved leg up. I'm still bitter about that.}



Right now it sits in my front room. I love it.
My question is, would you keep it as is, with all it's flaws?
Or would you paint it?


Funny story - my Grandpa's social security number is actually carved into the side. I guess he thought that if someone broke into their house and stole it, (you know because it's so easy and light to carry), the police would be able to get it back to him that way. I still remember when he did it. I think I was about 12.
