Cherry Bookcase

a very clean look and a rich colour. Simple elegance.

Very nice, & the shadows show that it’s not just a flat piece of wood.

Very good job, Nice color. Did you stain it or is it the natural Cherry color.

The customer had some custom mixed stain for all the Cherry in her house (all the doors, trim and kitchen cabinets), so I used that to ensure a match. The stain really worked well, I think it is a Sherwin Williams product. I really liked the color and how well it applied, Cherry stains up so much easier than oak, I attribute that to the grain tightness of the Cherry vs. oak. (I did keep a small sample back for future use).

So, Duane … stealing the customer’s stash stain, huh? Looks nice.

Will you be able to replicate the stain when your stash runs out, or is it a standard product of the company?

-- Bill, Turlock California, http://www.brookswoodworks.com

Guilty as charged. Because I liked the color so much I did keep some back. But for the record your honor, I only kept a very small sample that I will be able to stain some scrap cherry and take to a local paint store (Diamond Vogel) for them to match for me, for my next cherry project.

I have had excellent results with Diamond Vogels “Old Masters Penetrating Stains”. The manager is very talented at matching stains (without a computer-gasp). And they have an excellent system of keeping track of special mixes per customer. I have tried other companies products and have not had near the results.

The picture was taken outside on a very bright day, and the color seems a little washed out compared to what it looks like indoors….. Much richer and a little darker.
