I tried to make it look like it would have when it was new. The finish was badly faded when I got the set, but it was evident that it was colored in the same manner as the photographs.

The grillework was removed in order to better tone/finish both it and the rest of the cabinet.

Ultra Classic Van Dyke Walnut and in some places Tone Finish Van Dyke Walnut was used for the dark portions and several coats of Ultra Classic Medium Walnut for the rest. I lightly sanded between coats of toner, regardless.
