The photography is really misleasing. There is a huge abount of contrast in
that photo. There is no surface film left there.

Tests with water to see how it would look with finish evened it out
considerably. I'm beting that the proposed toner will make it go away
altogether.

Thoughts on how to make to color of a cherry newel match the fumed white
oak
spindles would be appreciated.

I strongly suggest stripping it absolutely bare before trying
anything on it, Steve. I see old finish on the lower areas.
