Ebonizing Wood with Quebracho Tea and Iron Acetate for the Blackest of Blacks
I am going to go over a particularly neat method to achieve that rich, dark finish: using quebracho tea and iron acetate. It’s not only cool but also kinder to the planet. Quebracho comes loaded with tannins, and when you mix it up with some homemade iron acetate (don't worry, it’s just steel wool and vinegar), you get a natural black stain that’s seriously durable and absolutely gorgeous.
