I'm making a pair of bedside cabinets out of Iroko and have found the the lumber I purchased was a dark brown on the outside and a golden yellow on the inside. Being new to this game, I am assuming that Iroko darkens with age. I have planed most of the darkness away and plan to build the cabinets with the golden side showing.
My question is: if I use polyurethene varnish on these, will the wood still darken over time (not that I mind) or would I be better off using a type of stain to give me an even finish?
