42-1008P Stain *Cabinet Done*
#12

 I should also point out that you can very the darkness of a given part of the cabinet just by spraying on more coats of tinted lacquer. The veneered portions with figured grain were usually just coated over to even out the colour more so then darkening it. The solid wood portions were usually made out of a cheaper white or blond wood like poplar so they would darken those more, like around the base of this console for example, or the molding around the top. 
Regards
Arran
