    American Cherry – 10″ x 10″ x 1″ -Kiln Dried

    £13.20

    Description

    American Cherry (Prunus serotina) is a prized hardwood native to North America, particularly abundant in the eastern United States. It is celebrated for its rich, warm hues that range from pale pinkish-brown when freshly cut to a deep reddish-brown as it ages. The grain is typically straight but can occasionally display wavy or figured patterns, adding to its visual appeal. Its fine, smooth texture contributes to a polished, elegant finish.

    Renowned for its workability, American Cherry is easy to cut, shape, and carve, making it a preferred choice for fine furniture, cabinetry, and millwork. It is especially favored in crafting decorative carvings, intricate inlays, and turned objects. The wood responds well to staining and polishing, further enhancing its natural beauty with a lustrous, refined surface.

    This hardwood is moderately durable, offering good resistance to decay, though it is softer than some other hardwoods, making it less ideal for heavy-wear applications. Despite this, its stability and ability to develop a rich patina over time make it highly desirable for both traditional and modern designs.

    American Cherry continues to be a favorite among woodworkers, furniture makers, and artisans due to its striking color, smooth grain, and excellent workability. Responsible sourcing and sustainable forestry practices help ensure its availability for future generations of craftsmen.
