“Cherry has no rivals that are as easy to work, fine textured, strong and regal in color. It’s highly rated in all working properties including wood bending and turning. Cherry’s color ages to a richer, rusty red brown with any clear finish.”
Color Range
Reddish brown with a golden luster. Freshly cut cherry is often very pale, but the wood oxidizes to its famously favorable rich brown red in time.
