Remarkable rot
Cherry is a treasure for furniture and cabinet makers! Its heartwood starts as a stunning light pinkish brown and transforms into a luxurious medium reddish brown as it matures and basks in light. The sapwood shines with a creamy pale-yellow hue, accented by occasional dark red or black pitch pockets. Renowned for its easy workability and consistent color, Cherry wood is a dream to work with. Even the curly or figured pieces plane and machine effortlessly. It’s no wonder this wood is loved by all who work with it!
