re: Cherry Coffee Table

Love the top. made better by that back story. That swirled grain, with the darker streaks is what I refer to as "Gummy" Cherry. I love all cherry, but Gummy wins if you want character built in. It's not more than mineral streaks, and gum pitch swirled in, but it gives those nice swirly grain lines.

Totally threw me off showing it next to the fireplace in the first shot, then the scale shot. Either you have some MONSTER matches, or that is an elaborate doll house sized room. 

Nice build.
