   I think it may be bleached cherry.

   I seems like its oak BUT it also looks like the pores were filled with a beige-ish wipe on stain (seal first with dewaxed shellac) to lighten the over all appearance.

   Second the light grain filler..or a grey/beige glaze of some sort.

   Thanks for the inputs. I'm going to try the shellac with the grain filler.

   With a close look, all the frame and trim material shows a strong mottling and mild flame figure that would point to the wood being used as birch. The inset panels on the doors I will assume are rotary-cut veneered plywood and birch, particularly red birch, can show a grain pattern that can mimic woods like oak. The solid wood parts to the immediate right of the stove show the wood's truest character with the strongly angled light.

    It looks like a tragic mistake to me....

    Appears to be some kind of bleached red oak? In the panels anyway. There's not enough detail there to really say what the rails and stiles are. R&S don't really appear to be oak though. Maybe birch like someone stated above. Whatever it is... it ain't pretty.

    Show your client a couple of samples of oak with different glazes and finishes. Let them decide.

    Whatever you do, make sure your clients approve a sample in writing. Have them sign the back of the sample with a permanent marker. Trust me on this.

    My guess is for the wood species is adler. Although the the picture is totally inadequate to make a positive identification, I'm pretty darn sure that is not oak. If it is oak (or bleached cherry as discussed above) it has been heavily modified.
