Skip the match, and work towards a color that will be complementary.
Both the stained wood and the cherry will change over time, so any luck
of a match will be temporary.


Ahhhh.... once again a voice of experience is heard.

I usually tell my clients (even with some paints) "it will get close,
but not match. Even if it matches now, it may not match in just a few
months. So rather than have an 'almost' match that looks bad, let's
pick a color that makes it look like we did it on purpose".

It saves us both grief.
