SWEET THANKS TINA , CELTICLEATHER AND KING'S X!!!!!!!
I have been using some stains that are made in Denmark, ad they have been extremely well made, I know how to make my own but it is easier just to buy them:)
I have this recipe.
50/50 water , vinegar
Boil, then place in a glass jar with Steel wool. Let sit for 3 weeks. Remove steel wool.
Add pigment- That is a very old easy concoction.
Not sure how to make antiques and I have not found any resources as of yet.
Feibings is not giving out secrets..... But I am sure there is someone here who has tried.
