How does wood trim get its color?

Anyone know how wood trim gets its color, White Ash Grain and Piano Finish Black in particular? The wood used for these trims don't naturally appear white or black; stains are applied, right?

Crayons Kidding!

I found this post that tells about the woods in BMW's or at least has some interesting dialogue about it:

The real question: Does your trim take a lot of wood?
