Is there an experienced furniture restorer who would like to offer some advice? Not too far from the top of my job list is the renovation of some cane-backed dining chairs. The finish has worn off some of the wood, some of the cross spindles are missing and a couple of the cane backs have suffered from the attention of a cat. I think I can deal with the last two but I don't know how to identify the type and colour of stain, or to blend new stain into existing. The only information I have is that they are about 30 years old, made in Singapore and might be Pecan. Any suggestions?
