Description

Most people visualize cherry wood with a reddish-brown color. This is indeed the tone seen in most cherry furniture. However, a fair amount of cherry also has a distinctively grayish cast, while other pieces have a light straw color. The freshly cut heartwood is usually light amber in tone, but will darken considerably with age and exposure to sunlight. Cherry sapwood is even lighter in color, from white to a light red-brown. Cherry wood often has black “pitch marks” which appear as small, dark lines. These are not considered defects, but are in fact inherent to the wood itself. Cherry is stiff, strong, and moderately hard.

This sample is to help you visualize stained and glazed finishes inspired by handcrafted design. The consistency of glazing will vary greatly from one wood species and door design to another. All final selections should be made from an actual door sample because no two trees grow identically, and the grain, texture, and base color of wood will vary. Please be aware that variations will also appear from door to door within your cabinetry.
