Cherry is one of the most common types of decorative wood. The most valued decorative properties of cherry wood are in demand in the production of musical instruments and decoration. The cherry finishing board practically does not absorb moisture and has an excellent elasticity.

Cherry sapwood is similar in color to birch, and the heartwood has a beautiful bright color in red tones from yellowish red to brown. Over time, the wood darkens, acquiring an equally beautiful dark brown or crimson color. And with the help of chemical processing, it is possible to achieve colors similar to mahogany.

The wood of this species is not used in construction, as it is much more expensive than other species. But for its appealing color, proper hardness, and machinability, it is widely used to produce furniture and interior decoration. Cherry veneer is most widely used.
