Which brand of stain was used? I looked through the Minwax colors but did not see chocolate. Thank you.

    Hi, Great question. Our hardwood floor installer applied two coats of a custom stain blend that is 50% ebony with 50% chocolate applied onto a rift and quarter sawn white oak floor. We are unable to confirm the brand of stain as our floor finisher says he cant remember. The general concept is mixing 50% black with 50% brown to achieve the rich dark tone. I recommend having your floor finisher provide at least 3 stain samples for your review and approve. It is great to have the stain samples applied to the actual floor so that you can see the finish in the actual space. Thanks for your question and good luck with your project.

    We loved this floor and used it for inspiration for our 4" rift and quartered white oak. We found that Duraseal 50% Dark Walnut, 50% Ebony came really close (third from the left).

    White Oak takes a stain beautifully. A great choice for these projects.
