Defined by Stave Width and Table Thickness
Classic Cherry tabletops in the Classic Line are built for timeless restaurant design. Each stave measures between 1 1/8″ and 1 3/8″ wide, and every top is 1 1/2″ thick. Thickness can be modified for a lighter or bolder presence. Cherry’s natural warmth and its ability to darken with light make it one of the most dynamic species for restaurant interiors with a touch of organic character.
🔆 Designer Insight
Cherry will begin darkening within weeks of sunlight exposure. Designers should anticipate this natural shift when selecting finishes and planning lighting to keep the space feeling intentional.
Cherry continues gaining richness as it ages, allowing restaurants to achieve a lived-in look that still feels refined. The smooth hand-feel and subtle grain movement support both modern and classic décor styles. Operators appreciate Cherry for its long term color development and steady performance under daily use, especially in spaces that benefit from warmth.
