Weekender #33 - Roxanne's Chair


One of the great characteristics of cherry wood is that over time the lighter tones get darker and deepen into shades of rich red-brown. The tung oil finish protects the wood without giving it that plastic glossy look of polyurethane. When I'm at shows it's amazing to see how few people can resist touching this chair. They can't help it. There's a sensuality to cherry that is hard to resist. And her charms grow stronger with age. You're not getting older your getting better.
