Black Cherry, Varathane Premium Fast Dry Wood Stain-262009, Quart

This is exactly what color it says it is is it very very pretty are we done all of my kitchen cabinets in it it didn't take very long the only thing that I did notice is that you have to have the right brush once it starts to dry you need to go over it with a different brush to get that pretty texture so it's not just one color Other than that It's great

I figured black cherry would be deep red but was totally unprepared when the most gorgeous purple I've ever seen was exposed upon opening this can of stain. I put two coats on a cheap little box and was tickled with the results. It's now a week later. The color has tamed considerably, but has retained a touch of the purple. Beautiful!

Black Cherry Fun Fact: Nature's Colorful Canvas The deep, rich hue of Black Cherry wood stain isn't just a pretty color; it's a testament to the fascinating chemistry and lifespan of this resilient tree species. Black Cherry trees, found in the eastern United States and Canada, are renowned for their vibrant heartwood. This inner core, which darkens with age, is the source of the stunning reddish-brown timber that inspires the "Black Cherry" stain color. However, the fascinating aspect lies in the heartwood's transformation. Initially, it's a pale, almost white hue, gradually darkening over decades as a complex interplay of light, oxygen, and natural compounds occurs within the tree. This unique process imbues Black Cherry wood with its characteristic depth and beauty. Interestingly, vibrant color isn't the only indicator of age. The heartwood of young Black Cherry trees often boasts a golden hue, while older specimens exhibit a deeper, almost purplish cast. These subtle variations add to the inherent charm of the wood, making each piece utterly unique and infused with the story of its lifespan. So, the next time you admire the rich Black Cherry stain, remember that it's not just a color; it's a captivating glimpse into nature's artistry, narrating the tale of the tree's journey through the years.

covers very well, and the color is beautiful. Very satisfied with this stain!

Love love love love this stuff

very lovely color, easy application, great product

This is a great product. I tried a sample size of it purchased elsewhere but when I returned for more they were out of stock. So I ordered it online from Walmart. Fortunately they did have some in stock so I was able to get it. Sadly Walmart messed up the “shipping “process and sent some of my order in the shipping and some of my order to pick up, and stragglers of items are still out there somewhere in shipping mystery land. But the stain is here. And it's great. I would recommend it highly.

like this stain. the color is beautiful but it is a little dark

Color is purple or mahogany based, not cherry at all.
