Solid Cherry Wood Bedroom Furniture
Cherry is a classic wood option for Amish furniture. Styles range from traditional, ornate Cherry bedroom furniture designs to sleek and modern sets. Browse our online gallery and find the perfect cherry wood bedroom set for your home.
Cherry Wood Bed Options
Selecting a cherry bed for your bedroom will create a stunning focal point in your space. All beds are available in Cherry. Traditional sleigh headboards, tall stately wood panel beds, and even sleek upholstered headboard shine in real Cherry wood.
All Cherry beds are available as King, Queen, Full, Twin, or California King size. Adjust the height of our headboards to be proportionate in your bedroom space.
Once you select the bed style you prefer, consider a storage platform base. Our collection of storage platforms pair with any headboard style. Each storage base adds four spacious drawers to your cherry bed frame. All platform bases eliminate the need for a box spring to support your mattress.
The first storage platform base is a siderail drawer unit. We add two drawers on each side of the bed. The siderail is off the floor, creating drawers that are inconspicuous. This drawer unit works with any footboard style, standard height or low profile.
Next, we offer a siderail and footboard drawer unit platform. This unit features two drawers in the footboard and another drawer on each side of the bed. The siderail and footboard drawer platform requires a low-profile footboard.
Finally, we offer a deep to floor siderail drawer unit. This unit includes two extra deep drawers on each side of the bed, extending all the way down to the floor. The deep to floor drawer unit pairs with any headboard and footboard style.
Items in a Cherry Wood Bedroom Furniture Set
Our bedroom furniture is completely customizable, allowing you to design the perfect cherry bed set for your space. Common bedroom set combinations include a bed, dresser, mirror, chest of drawers and two nightstands. Other standard bedroom furniture items include armoires, chiffoniers, mule chests, lingerie chests, and jewelry cabinets. Mix and match any style with the furniture items that fit your bedroom.
Is Cherry Wood Bedroom Furniture Expensive?
People often think Cherry wood furniture will be expensive. This is a common misconception for Amish furniture shoppers. Compared to other wood species available today, Cherry wood is an affordable option.
Like Oak and Maple, Cherry wood is readily available throughout Ohio's forests, making it easy for woodworkers to access. The price of wooden furniture fluctuates with supply and demand.
Comparing Select Cherry Wood vs Rustic or Sap Cherry Wood
Traditional Cherry furniture often has a formal design showing little to no color variation. Stain colors are medium to dark and have an elegant appeal.
To create furniture with minimal color variation in the grain texture, Amish furniture makers use Select Grade Cherry wood. Select Cherry has no knots or sap streaks through the wood and minimal cherry pits. This results in much waste in manufacturing when using select cherry wood. Thus, the price of select cherry is a top tier wood option.
Over the past years, interior design styles have evolved and today celebrate the natural color variation of solid wood. For Cherry wood to best showcase natural character, furniture makers include the solid wood boards with sap streaks. We often call this Sap Cherry or Character Cherry wood. This greatly reduces waste in manufacturing and saves you money.
Sap Cherry wood is a favorite choice for traditional bedroom styles in a medium stain color. Popular stain options include Michael's Cherry, shown on the Belmont bedroom furniture set. Modern styles such as the Carrington collection display the rich tones of Sap Cherry in a dark stain color.
Rustic cherry is another option in the lumber grade. We recommend this only for distressed and rustic bedroom furniture styles. Rustic cherry includes knots in the wood, filled with a black epoxy.

Comparing Hardwoods: Cherry Wood vs Maple Wood
Cherry wood is similar in texture and wood grain to Maple wood. Many people cannot tell the difference on medium to dark stained furniture. The Janka wood hardness scale rates them both at 950 for strength and durability.
The natural color tones of the wood present the greatest difference between the two. Maple is light colored, with brownish streaks in the wood. Cherry has a warm reddish undertone.
On light stain colors, this difference in natural wood coloring plays a huge factor in the final appearance. We do not recommend Cherry wood with light, cool gray stain colors. Cherry is best suited to warm stain colors that enhance the natural wood tones.
Solid Cherry Wood Dressers
Selecting a solid cherry bedroom dresser adds style and function in your space. Our bedroom dressers come in a variety of standard sizes ranging from 56 to 72 inches wide. Traditional, low dresser height is approximately 36 inches high, common in a seven-drawer layout. Tall dressers are usually 44-46 inches high, with a nine-drawer layout.
All dresser styles are available as cherry dressers. To request prices for styles not shown in Cherry wood, contact our team today.

Delivery includes our team bringing the furniture into your home and completely setting up any items requiring assembly. Lead times and delivery charges vary by location.
Care and Cleaning of Your Cherry Wood Bedroom Furniture
Our Cherry wood bedroom furniture requires little maintenance to look beautiful for many years. Keep it indoors, avoiding exposure to extreme changes in temperature and humidity. Simply clean it using a mild soap safe for wood, such as Murphy's Oil Soap, diluted in warm water.
The finish on our Cherry furniture is a catalyzed conversion varnish. This finish is waterproof, UV resistant to yellowing, and heat resistant. We do not recommend using wood polishes or conditioners on our cherry wood furniture. Polishes often leave a residue buildup on the finish.
Characteristics of Cherry Wood Over Time
Cherry wood tends to darken and enhance its natural red undertones over time and exposure to sunlight. This is most noticeable on light colored stains on Cherry wood. Color changes on medium to dark stains may be barely noticeable.
