Maple
Hard maple is a strong, close-grained wood that is predominantly off-white in
color, although it also contains light hues of yellow-brown and pink. Hard maple
occasionally contains small mineral, light tan or reddish -tinged streaks that
will darken with stain. It is usually straight grained, but can be wavy or even
curly. |

Birch
Natural birch is a medium-density hardwood with a distinct, moderate grain
pattern that ranges from straight to wavy or curly. The predominant sapwood
color is white to creamy yellow, while the heartwood varies in color from medium
or dark brown to reddish-brown. This range in color makes a distinctive
statement in a birch cabinetry selection. |

Hickory
Hickory is a strong, open-grained wood that is known for its flowing grain
pattern and dramatic variation in color. It often contains random specks, burls
and mineral streaks, and it is not uncommon to see doors or parts of doors that
range in color from light to deep brown when finished in light or natural
stains. Darker stains will mildly tone these color variations, but these very
characteristics make each hickory kitchen unique and the preference of those who
love wood. |

Cherry
Cherry is an elegant, multi-colored hardwood. In its raw state, it has a
pinkish-brown hue with occasional shades of white, green, pink or even gray.
Natural or light stains accent these color variations. Small gum pockets,
streaks, pin knots and figures are common. Cherry wood will darken or ˇ°mellowˇ±
with age. This mellowing is a natural occurrence and a benefit of owning solid
cherry cabinetry. |
