The wood behind the wall hangings was much lighter than the surrounding wood.
I can compare it to an apple that has a four hour old bite and a fresh bite.
At that moment we decided that the wall hangings added too much to the decor to take them away!

That happened to us too. The water based keeps it much lighter over years than the oil used to do.
