One can use a contrasting color to fill oak pores which is what I usually do since I like the look of old oak where the pores have become blackened. I use the pore filler tinted black. For a writing surface, it helps if the desk doesn't have such open pores, especially if you are not a religious blotter user and write directly on the surface of the desk.

Why not see if HM will take a commission, he does very nice work from what I've seen on the cellar.
