All HAAS wooden products are available in a variety of finishes. Most expensive and fine furniture is made of this wood which is characterized by its fine, uniform grain patterns. Cherry is mostly finished in a dark red or brown color. All cherry products will darken somewhat with age due to exposure to sun or artificial light.
Hickory is a very strong, close-grained wood that is known to have wide variations in colors.
These color variations will range from white to chocolate brown. Hickory wood is often used as an alternative to oak for consumers who prefer an open-grained wood, but have tired of the traditional oak look. Hickory, with its extreme strength and flexibility, is used often in the manufacturing of ax handles and other products where strength is desired. All Haas maple cabinets utilize hard maple, rather than the less expensive soft maple used by most manufacturers. Hard maple is a close-grained wood that is predominately white in color.
