Solid Cherry Sideboard Details

Solid Cherry wood is a timeless customer favorite for dining room buffets and sideboards. The rich texture of the grain has depth and interest without appearing overly prominent. Our Amish craftsmen use solid wood throughout the cabinets, from the inside shelving to the dovetailed drawer boxes. We never use veneers or engineered wood products.

Classic Amish Cherry Sideboard Colors

Cherry wood has a natural warmth and reddish undertones, enhanced over time and exposure to light. We build most Amish Cherry sideboards with a medium to dark stain color. This enhances the variation of the wood grain. Natural Cherry wood is also available, with only a clear finish applied to protect the wood.

Michael's Cherry is arguably the most popular stain color for Amish Cherry buffet cabinets. This medium stain is a rich, reddish-brown color with variation depending on the grain. We feature Michael's Cherry on Cherry wood for the Biltmore Buffet Cabinet, shown as a 2-door or 3-door size. With beveled drawer fronts and door panels, the Biltmore wooden buffet is a Cherry wood classic.

We often keep popular Cherry wood buffet cabinets in stock for same day pickup or quick ship delivery. Lead times vary by location; contact our team for more information. Browse our online collection to see current in stock options.

Another popular stain color for Cherry wood, Asbury Brown is slightly darker than Michael's Cherry. Asbury has deeper brown tones, while still allowing the natural reddish undertones of Cherry wood to shine. We display Asbury Brown on Cherry wood on the Manhattan Buffet Cabinet and the turned post style of the Laker.

We often pair Cherry wood with a black stained Maple wood for 2-tone Amish dining furniture. Tables are popular with black legs and a warm Cherry wood tabletop. Matching buffets or sideboards may have a black stained frame with Cherry wood doors and drawers, shown on the OBG Wine Buffet. Other 2-tone combinations may feature a solid black stained base and Cherry wood only for the buffet top.

All Cherry wood buffets and sideboards include the same catalyzed conversion varnish to protect the furniture. This durable finish is waterproof, heat resistant to 220 degrees and UV resistant to fading. We do not recommend wood conditioners or polishes with a catalyzed varnish. Simple cleaning with a mild soap and water to prevent dust buildup is all the maintenance required.

Cherry Formal Dining Room Sets with Hutch and Buffet

Formal dining room sets often feature a table set with matching dining hutch or buffet cabinet. The natural texture of Cherry wood perfectly complements formal dining room sets, such as the Biltmore Cherry Dining Set. The large extendable dining table has a formal feel with a bold, modern pedestal base. Where some wood grain may feel overpowering with matching sets, the subtle texture of Cherry wood is perfect for this application.

Other formal Cherry dining styles include the Shreveport collection, featuring a classic turned leg table and upholstered dining chairs. Smaller round dining sets such as the Ellington collection feature the popular black and Cherry wood combo.

Comparing Cherry Wood Sideboard Cabinets to Other American Hardwoods

The Janka scale measures the force required to embed a steel ball halfway into the wood. Cherry wood rates at 950 on the Janka wood scale. To compare, soft wood types such as White Pine rank about 350 on the scale.

The density of Cherry wood is identical to Brown Maple wood, another popular Amish furniture option. Other hardwoods such as Walnut at 1010 or Red Oak at 1290 are slightly harder than Cherry wood. Hickory wood is the hardest wood option available for Amish furniture, rating at 1820 on the Janka scale.

Cherry and Maple have a similar grain texture, making it hard for many people to discern the difference. The two wood types appear almost identical with dark wood stains. Lighter stains have greater contrast, with the reddish undertones of Cherry wood adding warmth. Maple wood has light blonde tones and better suited for light brown and gray stain colors.

Custom Cherry Wood Buffets & Sideboards

Amish furniture makers in Ohio build all buffet cabinets and sideboards from scratch, allowing for custom design requests. The attention to detail and high-quality construction ensures a long-lasting dining room cabinet.

Ordering custom Cherry furniture may mean simple design requests like the stain color or hardware finish. These small changes do not affect the price of a Cherry wood cabinet. Browse our gallery for inspiration or request stain samples to compare colors in your own home. Hardware finishes complete the design, ranging from gold and silver to bronze and black.

Other custom options may include adding a silverware drawer insert to organize your flatware. Pullout trays expand the top surface when using your cabinet for serving desserts or drinks tableside. Take advantage of the vertical space in your room by adding a small hutch topper or full-size China display cabinet. Matching mirrors add light and visually expand a small dining room.

Many people customize a Cherry wood buffet to include wine storage. We offer many layouts and features to design the perfect Cherry wood wine cabinet. From simple, X-style wine racks to goblet hangers and pullout trays, we have you covered. Add LED lights to add sparkle showcase your wine collection.

Some Cherry wine cabinets even include a built-in wine fridge. Keep your whites chilled and ready to serve in your dining room. Our team is happy to design a Cherry wine cabinet with mini fridge and create detailed 3D renders for your review.

Soft closing drawer slides is another common request for a custom version of our Cherry buffets. The standard drawer slides are a full-extension, ball bearing slide that glides smoothly and easily. All buffets and sideboards are available with undermount, soft closing drawers upon request. These anti-slam drawer slides are a favorite for cabinets with high traffic.

The most common custom request for Cherry wood furniture buffets is a custom size change. Make the most of your space by designing the perfect size to fill up that blank wall. Pro tip: tape out on wall and floor the size you are considering, ensuring the perfect proportions.
