Historic Traits
As a pioneer species in certain forest regions it has establish itself as the premier timber. Cherry fits with contemporary environmental consciousness (green building). Of all the different cherry species, the American Black Cherry (Prunus serotina) is the largest, and the only one to attain the size and form necessary to produce our cherry beams and cherry mantles. The Allegheny Plateau of Pennsylvania is the source of the finest cherry beam and cherry lumber in the world.
Why use Cherry ?
The Cherry Tree yields beautiful prominently figured lumber. The figure is produced by a narrow band of darker colored cells that form in late summer accenting each annual ring. Flashes of even darker color and pockets of crystalline pitch add to Cherry lumber a unique character, they result from the tree's immune response to attacks by various boring insects and stress. The wood's color and figure varies depending on the moisture and mineral content of the soil it grew in and even the portion of the tree from which it is cut.
The finest Cherry timber in the world grows in Pennsylvania!
