Cherry: Rich American Hardwood Warmth That Deepens with Time
Cherry is one of the most rewarding hardwoods to live with because its color develops depth over time. A Cherry Signature Blended Grain Countertop starts with warm reddish-brown character and gradually takes on a richer, more mature tone as the wood is exposed to light and everyday use.
The blended edge grain layout gives Cherry a handcrafted rhythm, combining smooth grain, warm tone shifts, and natural variation into a surface that feels classic without being predictable. It is a beautiful choice when you want the countertop to add warmth, elegance, and a sense of permanence.
Cherry works especially well in traditional, transitional, craftsman, and high-end residential spaces. Use it for kitchen islands, bar tops, dining surfaces, desks, built-ins, or anywhere you want a premium American hardwood with lasting visual appeal.
Each top is made from solid Cherry hardwood and custom built for your project. Select the size, thickness, finish, edge profile, texture, cutouts, miter cuts, and joint-prep options that fit your design, with sizes available up to 84 inches deep by 192 inches long.

Is this top solid Cherry?
Yes. It is made from solid Cherry hardwood, not veneer, laminate, or a thin top layer.

The blended layout highlights Cherry's natural tone shifts and smooth grain, giving the surface more movement than a uniform panel.

Your new Hardwood Lumber Company countertop is protected by a one-year warranty against defects in material and workmanship. To ensure your warranty remains valid, any unfinished countertops must be finished and installed within one week of delivery, and you must follow our Countertop Finishing and Installation Guide precisely. Natural wood characteristics, such as minor warping due to environmental changes (often correctable with proper installation) or variations in grain and color, are not considered defects. The warranty does not cover scuffs or scratches on prefinished countertops caused by installation or normal wear and tear. Specific conditions that will void the warranty include not adhering to the finishing and installation guide, failing to support overhangs greater than 10 inches, or not properly protecting cutouts for stoves (from heat) and sinks (from moisture). Additionally, countertops with sink cutouts that have a Mineral Oil Finish or Salad Bowl Finish are not covered under this warranty

To keep your hardwood countertop looking its best and performing well for years to come, proper care is essential. If your countertop arrived unfinished, it's crucial to apply a food-safe finish to all surfaces (top, bottom, and all edges) within one week of delivery. For countertops finished with oil, re-apply a quality butcher block oil or conditioner approximately twice a month, or whenever the wood begins to look dry, to keep it hydrated and protected. Clean your countertop regularly with mild soap and warm water, wiping up spills promptly. For disinfection, a diluted white vinegar solution can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners and never let water stand on the surface for extended periods. For specialized finishes like Rubio Monocoat, use the recommended cleaning and maintenance products to preserve its unique properties.
Character Cherry
Cherry heartwood varies from rich red to reddish brown and will darken with age and on exposure to light. In contrast, cherry sapwood is creamy white. Cherry wood has a fine uniform, straight grain, satiny, smooth texture, and may naturally contain brown pith flecks and small gum pockets. Cherry is easy to machine, nails and glues well and when sanded and stained, it produces an excellent smooth finish. Our character cherry products are made by mixing the heartwood and sapwood and may also have some pith flecks and small gum pockets along with some tight knots.
