That lokks like natural wood, not stained.

Maybe. I was thinking it looked to fresh cut to be weathered grey luke that, but the rough cut looked very similar to our cedar from a wood species perspective. I could be wrong though.

Its stained, we then had our faux finisher go over the stain to give it a more antiqued look. All of the stains and paint colors we use on our projects are custom blends, my advice for choosing your colors is to base off another color or stain you have in your home then tone it down by 20% or 10%.
