48-1262 correct lacquer tones - ke5yum - 03-13-2013

Since I want my project to look correct, what lacquer tones should I use on the cabinet? I am considering Mohawk Tone Finish Toners, and several colors have been recommended from various places I have looked.

I would have to guess, based on a photo I have (I do not nor have I ever owned one of these): Medium Walnut (Tone Finish) overall, with Perfect Brown (Ultra Classic) on the upper and lower trim.

This question is a followup to the lacquer tone question and is prompted by the discussion of various photo finishes. I am using a promotional photo to guide me in my restoration of my 48-1262. I notice at the bottom of the cabinet and at the top of the grill there appears to be a different kind of finish. Is this a glaze or is it photo finish?
