I'd say "postwar refinished" - I've got one similar to that and it's been repainted over various scratches, etc., which are visible under the paint. (It's also not totally repainted, so possibly done at unit level to tidy things up for inspections. The wood under the set is still plain, as are (sensibly) the handles.)
