The heart wood of this wood is a beautiful light pinkish brown when freshly cut and darkens to a rich medium reddish brown as it ages and is exposed to light. The sap wood is a creamy pale-yellow colour and there are occasional dark red/black pitch pockets.
Cherry is desired by furniture and cabinet makers for its easy workability and even colouring. Even curly or figured pieces plane and machine well.

Working with Thin Lumber
4" and wider thins are resawn from a board thick enough to produce 2 pieces and then planed down to a finished thickness of 1/4". This milling process releases tensions in the board and may well induce slight cupping and/or bowing in the finished piece. These movements are normal and not considered "defects". They will not be grounds for a return or refund.

Wood came quickly and was in perfect condition. I will be ordering from KJP again.
Wood is beautiful, but some of the boards are on the dark side, and some are light. I’m obviously making a single object out of the wood, so it would be nice if all the boards matched… at least in overall color
This was perfect for my projects. Look forward to more orders and start new projects.
Prompt shipping. Well packaged. Happy customer!
Laser cuts through it clean and the colour is great
This batch did not cut out well with my laser, lost quarter of almost every sheet, plenty of waste
