What type of wood can we find to patch a old parquet floor border?
We are in a 100 year old brownstone building that has quarter sawn oak and mahogany flooring with other wood we cant identify.
Does anyone know what types of wood are commomly used for these type of parquet floor borders since no one we show it to seems to agree to their identity?
Most of the patching are long strips of fairly plain and soft wood outlining the border that sucks up a lot of stain showing some blotches but not a lot of grain.
Thank you for any educated guesses you might have to common types of old or new wood that could be found for patches these days.

vent the riser by adding a T bef
dear master plumber, could we vent the riser by adding a T before the radiator valve on the top floor, and placing a large gorton vent in the T? we don’t have access to tap the riser in the apartment just below the top floor.
thank you as always for your generous knowledge
