Nothing will stain to match that veneer/finish combo except the same veneer/finish technique.

Bondo will work to repair the chipped area, but will have to be painted to cover.

for another project of mine, someone mentioined doing some kind of gold leaf on it. I googled a few sites today and it's surprisingly affordable, I found some decent prices on this stuff.

Since these flaws are only on the edge, how strange would it look to do something with JUST the rim of the table top? something contrasting maybe? fix the boo boo and then maybe paint that area black? that could work I think might look like it was done on purpose even. Well it's worth a try anyway. worse case is that it looks odd and then I can go for a plan B.
