It all starts with choosing the right wood and finishing it to perfection. American Black Cherry's warm tones and intricate, swirling grain patterns blend well with today's trending earth-tone color palette and offers an organic contrast to grays and neutrals. A light pinkish-brown when freshly cut, the color deepens to a rich medium-brown with time and exposure to light. Its tight grain provides a naturally even texture and luster, and commonly showcases additional character with its naturally-occurring pitch pockets.

*Please Note: Due to the natural characteristics of hardwoods, including grain, texture, and color, we cannot guarantee an exact match to samples or online photos. Slight variations in color are normal and add depth and character to the product. Other factors such as age and exposure to light can further alter the appearance of the piece.
We highly recommend ordering a sample of your preferred species and finish as the final tone of the wood will differ across finish options.
