It was the first of many thrift store purchases that Rach and I made. We got it at the Second Mile in West Philly before we moved into our tiny house in Grad Hospital. It has modern Danish detailing, with concealed hinges and stainless pulls on the doors and drawers.I've gotten a few books out of the library on refinishing, but am still stymied as to how to handle the detailing on the front panel doors and drawers. Multiple layers of different species veneer make sanding and staining problematic.
Does anyone have any ideas?

It looks really nice in the pictures. Does it need a full-blown refinishing? You might get by with "rejuvenating" the finish - clean it up really well & perhaps add another coat (assuming you know what the original finish is). Or research the care of antiques - rather than researching refinishing - curators have a lot of tricks to preserve a finish & bring it back to life without stripping & refinishing. I always want to do the least possible so as to not lose the signs of wear & use that add character.
