Cherry Rough Lumber — American Black Cherry, Priced per Board Foot

Estate Millwork uses Appalachian Black Cherry for cabinet doors and interior work where the wood earns its own finish. Buy that same kiln-dried Cherry by the board foot — select thickness and milling, enter the quantity you need, and add to cart.

Choose Rough Sawn for shop stock you'll mill yourself. Choose S4S for boards surfaced to 150-grit and ready to use. Choose S2S for face-surfaced material you'll joint yourself.

About Our Cherry

• American Black Cherry ( Prunus serotina ) — Appalachian stock, the traditional source
• Cherry darkens with light exposure: what leaves here pale pink deepens to a rich red-brown over the first year and keeps going
• Janka hardness 950 — soft enough to machine cleanly, hard enough for cabinetry and furniture
• Kiln-dried to 6–8% moisture content, #1 Common and better grade
• Expect small gum pockets and pin knots — they are characteristic of the species, not a defect
• Available 4/4 through 10/4 thickness

Do not stain Cherry to force the color. Let it patina — a clear finish and a year of daylight does what no stain matches.

What Builders Make from Cherry

• Fine furniture and casework — the American cabinetmaker's wood; ages to a deep red-brown
• Interior doors and cabinet fronts — a clear finish is all it needs
• Turnings and carving — machines cleanly and holds crisp detail
• Mouldings and architectural millwork — mantels, panelling and trim
• Boxes and small goods — humidors, jewelry and keepsake boxes
