In general, our pieces are solid hardwood throughout. Matching veneer core plywood is used for drawer bottoms and cabinet backs. Lumber for each piece is hand selected by the master craftsman for color and figure. Each piece is the same wood species throughout - we don't use a cheaper material on the inside. For instance, a cherry piece will be all cherry.
Doors are cope and rail construction.
Door panels are bookmatched from a single board for even color and figure. These slides are made for file drawers and can support approximately 100 pounds with the drawer fully extended. They require no maintenance, don't stick or bind with changes in the seasons and can't fall out of the cabinet when the drawer is fully extended. Every drawer is individually fitted to the opening. Drawer boxes are solid wood, dovetailed at all four corners.
