Cherry super stave worktops in an L-shaped kitchen with induction hob and inset sink

Cherry Worktops

North American Cherry is a dense wood with a close grain and a fine, even texture. The truly amazing thing about Cherry is its depth. The colour can deepen from both oiling and exposure to light, and has distinctive and beautiful gold and salmonish-pink highlights throughout. When it has been sanded, Cherry can develop almost a glass-like finish.

It is obvious from the photographs that we only use furniture grade Cherry, but what may not be so clear is just how specific we are when we select our timber. Cherry is not only graded for knots, defects and sap wood, but in the upper grades - i.e. furniture grades - it is also graded for colour, gum pockets, pith marks and general consistency. The Cherry timber we use is called 95/50, which means the top surface must be at least 95 % red (as opposed to cream) and the underside at least 50 %. We also specify a limit on gum pockets, pith marks, and pay particular attention to a consistent grain.

Super wide stave Cherry worktops are made with high end furniture grade solid North American Cherry we use in all our Cherry worktops. For a kitchen that doesn't compromise on the quality of the raw materials.

Our workshops can make up a Cherry wooden worktop to almost any size and shape. As well as all manner of sink cut outs, corners, curves, drop downs, mitre cuts and finishing detail, we can also oil the wooden worktops so they are ready for immediate installation. We are happy to do as much, or as little work as you would like us to do.

Installation Oiling
If you would like the reassurance of us pre-oiling your cherry worktops, we can do so with our installation oiling service. Your cherry worktops will then arrive ready for you to install as soon as you receive them. Read more about our Installation Oiling Service.

Nano Coating
Nano-coating is a 2 Part Process. The first application consists of 2 separate coatings, which are designed to react and bind with the timber. This treatment alone is not enough to protect timber but when combined with the second application, it protects the initial coat and forms a barrier against soap and alcohol etc. This second coating is water/scratch resistant, the daily wear and tear from sticky and wet glasses will prove the resilience of our nano coating.

White Wash
A popular traditional wood finishing effect, whitewash worktops add a wonderfully rustic style to your kitchen. Depending on what finish you choose, our whitewash can be applied during pre-installation oiling or with our advanced nano-coating treatment.
