About the material

American cherry (Prunus serotina) varies in colour from pink to reddish brown, and darkens on exposure to light. It is easily machined and produces a smooth glassy finish when sanded and polished. This makes it well suited to all types of furniture, turning, panelling and veneer applications, and its acoustic properties mean it is ideal for musical instruments and auditoria.
