ᐅ Painting individual stair treads

Hello everyone,

I have the following situation and am hoping for your help.

I bought a house that has a harp staircase, with what I believe are beech steps. One of the steps had to be sanded down because it was completely damaged.
What should I use to refinish it so that it matches the color of the other steps?
I assume a simple parquet varnish won’t work because it would still be lighter. What treatment do you think the other steps have?

Attached are some pictures.

Thank you in advance

Yes, unfortunately, I don’t know if the wood will darken further under a layer of varnish. Testing it sounds like a good idea; if necessary, you can always sand it down again.
