American Cherry
A premium hardwood prized for furniture, interior joinery, and fine finishing
American Cherry is a highly sought-after hardwood known for its rich colour, excellent finishing qualities, and refined appearance. With a medium density and good bending properties, it can be steam bent with care, making it suitable for a wide range of joinery and furniture applications.
The timber offers medium strength and shock resistance, with low stiffness, and is particularly valued for how easily it stains and finishes to an exceptional surface. Once dry, American Cherry is stable and reliable, making it a favourite choice for interior joinery and bespoke furniture.
Visually, cherry heartwood ranges from rich red to reddish-brown and naturally darkens over time when exposed to light. The sapwood contrasts beautifully with a creamy white tone, adding depth and character to finished pieces.
