Good Taste In Staining








Oak, mahogany, cherry, black walnut, and like imitations are always good in an artistic sense, but imitations of unfamiliar woods mean nothing to the average person.

Oregon pine, or some light-colored wood, with a strong contrasting grain may be used for staining in imitation of oak.
