Known for its fine, uniform texture and natural luster, Cherry is a favorite among woodworkers for furniture, cabinetry, decorative accents, and detailed woodworking projects.

Thickness: 1/2" surfaced on three sides (S3S)
Grain: Typically straight and uniform, with a fine, smooth texture and occasional attractive figure
Color: Light pinkish-brown to warm reddish-brown, naturally darkening to a rich, deep reddish tone with age and exposure to light
Applications: Small furniture components, drawer parts, shelving, boxes, game boards, decorative panels, craft projects, and specialty woodworking
Workability: Machines, sands, glues, and finishes exceptionally well. Cherry is known for its ease of machining and ability to produce clean, crisp edges and smooth surfaces. Its fine grain accepts clear finishes beautifully, enhancing its natural warmth and rich color.

Cherry combines timeless beauty, excellent workability, and versatility, making it an outstanding choice for both traditional and contemporary woodworking. The S3S surface preparation reduces milling time while leaving one rough edge for final sizing to your project's requirements.
