Why Choose Cherry End Grain Countertops?
✅ Enduring Beauty
Cherry’s warm reddish-brown tones and fine, straight grain give it a luxurious look that becomes richer as it ages. End grain construction enhances this with dramatic texture and visual depth.
✅ Durability You Can Feel
With a Janka hardness of 950 lbf (4,230 N), Cherry may not be the hardest wood, but end grain boosts its resilience, making it suitable for high-impact areas and food prep stations.
✅ Premium Look & Chef-Preferred Design
Loved by culinary professionals and designers alike, end grain Cherry brings artisanal charm and commercial-grade performance to your countertop.
✅ Precision-Cut and Ready for Installation
All countertops are CNC-cut to your measurements, sealed on all sides, and pre-finished in matte, satin, or gloss varnish for immediate installation.
✅ Long-Term Investment
With the right care, Cherry end grain tops last for decades, developing a unique patina and story in your kitchen or workspace.
What to Know Before You Order
Does Cherry darken over time?
Yes. It matures from light pinkish-red to a deeper, more vibrant red-brown—adding depth and personality with age.
Is it safe for food prep?
Absolutely. End grain construction is naturally hygienic and ideal for chopping surfaces, butcher blocks, and work tables.
How does it compare to Walnut or Maple?
Cherry has a warmer hue and smoother grain. While softer than Maple or Walnut, its end grain construction makes it highly practical for real-world use.

Yes—we offer made-to-order sizing, sink and hob cutouts, and optional steel reinforcement.
