Color Change: ? Like domestic cherry, Brazilian Cherry will change dramatically over time from the yellow/tan/salmon color when freshly milled into a deep rich reddish color. In direct sunlight, the color change will occur within a few days. Out of sunlight, it will oxidize slowly over six months. Water based finishes tend to retard the color change while oil based finishes enhance it
Color Range: ? Brazilian Cherry varies from yellowish hues to pink/reds to dark reds with black striping. Quartered selection yields the most uniform look/color range
Where to Use: ? Given Brazilian Cherry’s extreme hardness, it may be used in residential and commercial installations
Site Sanding Issues: ? none known
Special Characteristics: ? Silica/White Spots are a natural occurrence in Brazilian Cherry and are not considered a defect but instead are part of the species. Pay close attention to each mill's notes which show which grade they attempt to select out those spots which are visible at the time of grading. Note: Even mills that grade it out of their upper grades will still miss some
