Cherry Wood: Timeless Beauty with Warm, Rich Character
Cherry is a premium hardwood prized for its rich color, smooth grain, and natural aging process. Over time, it darkens beautifully, developing a deep, reddish patina. Its fine texture accepts stain evenly, though variations in sapwood and grain can add character—especially with lighter finishes. Cherry is ideal for traditional and transitional designs, offering warmth and elegance. The stains shown are from FinishWorks, trusted for delivering color consistency and durability across wood species—ensuring reliable, lasting beauty.
