Thanks vickimp! I'm in Texas, so this could work out well. I've sent them a request for info via the website. Anyone else have recommendations?

I have dark stained oak, I did not water pop it. My floor guys refused. They are wood purists and would not do it. However my floors look fantastic. Keep in mind water popping will emphasize the grain in the wood. It will make it darker since there is a lot of dark knots and grains in hickory it might be better to just stain it without water popping. Ask your floor guys, if you are doing this yourself, I would search on wood care and staining. I do not have hickory but dark stained hickory floors will be beautiful. Especially with cream cabinets. Here are some images of hickory floors. not mine, but maybe they can help you see how pretty hickory can be. ~boxerpups Below is Not Hickory but you can visualize how pretty dark floors look Not hickory but again the dark looks nice Here is a link that might be useful: Floors Garden web

Upon closer inspection I just didn't get the top piece covered well enough. Another coat & it matches up fine. I think a metallic blackish paint would help define the fluting in the pole & rope detail around the bottom. Maybe I'm just not finished yet? A little dab of antique gold to highlight the bottom starburst piece maybe? I just need to work on the color....keep it from being too uniform. ALL in ALL it isn't rusty anymore! lol :0) The glass globe is still VERY attractive sitting there!

Struggling with selecting a backsplash and hardware for the slab door cabinets? Vertical walnut veneer + Blizzard ( white quartz ) - want to break the super clean lines with some warm color tile. Thank you!
