Would it be possible to stain the wood to an espresso color?

I wouldn't attempt it. It's so nice the way it is. I'd be afraid that I would ruin it with the stain. It's hard to know if its treated with any type of sealant that would make it resistant to staining it a different color.

The existing finish would have to be completely sanded down. I wouldn't do it but I guess it could be done.

I would suggest something with an espresso finish. The color is dark and rich looking, definitely a dark brown and not black.

I'd call the color something like espresso--it is dark brown, tending toward black. So, yes, more like the picture than the color cinnamon-cherry would suggest.

It's a very dark espresso color. We have black couches and dark stained wood and it looks great with both.

No, I don't think the lumber is treated, but I believe it can be stained. That's a good idea!

There is a finish on the table, you would have to strip it off first to stain it.

Yes! I have ours w/ dark espresso furniture & it looks great. It would get washed out w/ light furniture. The crib sheet pilled after 2 months to the point it looked awful so I got additional solid blue sheets.

I have a dark espresso furniture in my son's room and that works, but there is actually black in the set so I think it would look very nice.

While I am not a woodworker, I do not think this wood would respond well to staining. More over, you'd definitely have to sand it down first as there is already a finish on it.

Painting is possible. It has a shine to it so may need sanding. Staining would seem tough with the finish. I thought about the same thing but it does look nice as is.

It is unfinished. It's more of a rustic piece. However, I don't see why you couldn't stain it if you wanted too.

We can make this out of new cherry wood and finish it with a natural stain. Or make it out if pine and finish it with a cherry stain. Jim

I'm not an expert but I think you could paint it if you sanded it first. I don't think you can stain it

It would go well with espresso. I love it. It is solid wood and very good quality.

When I sold furniture, we would refer to this as an Espresso. From a distance or low light it can appear black, but it's black with some brown in there.

I have 'found" many old pieces that were walnut stained, but needed help. I sanded them down a little. I gave them a light coat of cherry stainand they look just like this. Walnut with a touch of cherry . So I invented espresso and await my royalties for my invention.
