Nick, You are correct your Arliss had the Mahogany finish. That was the only finish available on this model. Perhaps your set, as Jr. Tech pointed out is severely faded from the sun. The veneers always varied with the individual wood selected. Matched veneers for the doors would be very difficult in large and rapid production runs.
