American cherry lumber, edged – FAS quality – 26 mm, 33 mm or 52 mm thickness – kiln-dried 8-10% – wood for furniture making and DIY

AMERICAN CHERRY – PRECIOUS WOOD FOR YOUR WOOD PROJECT

Fine grain, warm tones, and versatile processing options: American cherry is a prized furniture wood for special projects. At JANHO, you'll find solid, rough-sawn lumber from FAS-graded timber – kiln-dried to approximately 8–12% moisture content and available in various dimensions.

We trim the planks ourselves and cut the boards to size in our workshop. This allows us to accommodate individual requests regarding dimensions and wood selection.

THE TYPE OF WOOD

American cherry, also called American black cherry, bears the botanical name Prunus serotina. Its heartwood displays warm reddish to reddish-brown hues, while the sapwood can be significantly lighter.

A particularly characteristic feature is its natural color development: Under the influence of light, cherry wood darkens and develops a deeper, warmer hue over time. Freshly treated areas may initially appear lighter.

The finely textured wood is easy to saw, plane, sand, glue, and turn. After further processing, it is ideally suited for smooth, meticulously finished surfaces.

FAS QUALITY

Our cut-to-size timbers are produced from FAS-graded raw planks. FAS is one of the highest grading classes for American hardwood lumber and stands for a high yield of clean sections suitable for high-quality woodworking.

The grading refers to the raw material. Natural color variations, sapwood content, and wood-typical characteristics can also occur in high-quality cherry wood. These include, for example, small dark spots or the gumming characteristic of cherry.

If you are looking for a particularly even grain, as little sapwood as possible, or boards that match in color, please contact us before placing your order. We will try to accommodate your requests based on the available wood.

Chamber-dried to approx. 8–12%

The wood is technically dried and suitable for further processing into furniture and other woodworking projects for indoor use.

Wood absorbs and releases moisture depending on the ambient climate. Therefore, store it in a dry place and allow it to acclimatize at the intended processing location before use. Even kiln-dried solid wood can react to changes in humidity and temperature.

SAW-CUT AND EDGED

This offer includes rough-sawn, edged lumber. The surfaces still show saw marks and possible unevenness and are ready for your further processing.

The specified thicknesses are nominal dimensions of the rough-sawn lumber. When planing, planing, and sanding, factor in a corresponding amount of material removal. The achievable finished thickness depends on the specific board and the required processing.

Planed out on request

Would you like the wood to be pre-planed? We offer this service upon request via a separate listing. Please let us know the desired finished dimensions and the required quantity so we can coordinate the appropriate service.

CUSTOM CUTTINGS FROM OUR MANUFACTORY

Since we trim and cut our own materials, other dimensions are also possible upon request. Describe your project and your requirements regarding width, length, grain, or color. We'll check what we can accommodate from our stock.
