I need to match the stain on another piece I own....
Two things to note:
1. I can't match someone else's stain color. I don't even offer to match my own unless two pieces are ordered at the same time.
2. No furniture maker promises to match colors, even their own.
Attemps at color-matching never work. I've spent more time mixing and sampling stains than building some pieces. I don't even attempt it any more.
There may be companies that will custom mix a stain for you... I don't know of one that has any reasonable rate of success, don't ask! I will apply whatever stain you send to me in an effort to match your existing pieces. However, the risk is all your's. I do not accept returns on custom pieces.

Will your stains fade?
Yes. Everything fades. Leather, stains, dyes, paint, cloth, wood, my memory....
An exception is cherry wood. The color deepens and matures as it's exposed to sunlight.

I can't decide what color to have you apply.... nothing looks like what I have now....
Contrast if you can't match. Variety isn't bad... Look around your house. Variety!
