Introduction to Cherry Wood

Cherry wood is a hardwood that belongs to the rose family and is typically found in the northern temperate regions. It has a rich, reddish-orange color with a watermarked appearance and natural black mineral streaks in the wood grain.

The texture of cherry wood is similar to that of black walnut, with a smooth and delicate feel that lacks the pronounced grain pattern of other woods. One unique characteristic of cherry wood is that its color deepens and becomes more red over time, which adds to its overall beauty and character.

Cherry wood was a popular choice for furniture during the Middle Ages, and it continues to be used today for its timeless and vintage aesthetic.

Cherry wood has a warm, orange hue with a delicate and smooth grain pattern. It has natural dark mineral streaks in the wood, and once dried, it has excellent stability and is less prone to warping, cracking, or insect damage compared to other woods. In comparison to white oak, cherry wood has a deeper color and finer grain pattern.

Differences between Cherry Wood and Birch Wood

Birch wood is a different type of hardwood that is similar in color and grain pattern to cherry wood. While both cherry and birch are primarily found in the United States, they are distinct tree species with different properties. Cherry wood is considered to be superior in terms of quality and is more expensive, so consumers should take care to differentiate between the two when selecting furniture.

Manchurian Alder is an ancient Coniferous plant with hard and beautiful wood grain, which is a valuable material for making furniture. There are two reasons why it is called Manchurian Alder: one is that it grows mostly in wetlands and near water, and the other is that its pattern looks like the layers of ripples caused by throwing stones into water, which is very elegant. Manchurian Alder furniture is very popular in the Hong Kong market because of its beauty, durability, and practicality.

First of all, Manchurian Alder furniture is very durable due to its density and texture, which can resist moisture, insects, and abrasion. Even in the humid environment of Hong Kong, it will not swell or deform. In addition, Manchurian Alder furniture has unique patterns and color, which can bring a natural and warm atmosphere to the home, and is widely used in modern and traditional interior design styles. At the same time, Manchurian Alder furniture is also very practical, and can be used to make tables, cabinets, beds, chairs and other furniture to meet different household needs. However, the quality of Manchurian Alder furniture on the market varies. Some products use Manchurian Alder veneer with ordinary wood for the main frame, which is not hard enough and easy to deform. Therefore, when purchasing Manchurian Alder furniture, consumers need to be careful and make sure that the product is made of real Manchurian Alder wood.

For the origin of Manchurian Alder, Russia is an ideal place. The Manchurian Alder we selected comes from the area of Khabarovsk in Russia, where the climate is cold and the growth rate of the wood is slow. The breast diameter (the diameter at the base of the trunk) grows about 1 millimeter per year, and the texture is very hard. In addition, the climate in this area is relatively humid, with high water content, so Manchurian Alder has good moisture resistance, wear resistance, and is not easily deformed. This also explains why Manchurian Alder furniture produced in Russia is of higher quality and more popular in the market.
