Paint is Tough to Choose

Trying to decide which paint will match the wood better. They are very close. The sample on the left has some bronze flecks. Probably the sample on the right.  It’s a bigger decision than just his one piece of furniture.  This scheme of white oak, black Rubio, and black metal will be used throughout the house.    Trying to get the right color of paint is challenging.  When a good color is chosen, run your fingernail on the paint.  See if it changes.  A few shades were ruled out because of the lack of durability.  Try to think of as many minor types of damage it can get, and try it on a scrap.
