Bryan Tyler Nelson		CHERRY
	Cherry - (Prunus serotina) Cherry is a domestic hardwood. The heartwood is a medium red-brown with it’s own characteristic luster. The sapwood is narrow and nearly white. The grain is straight, finely textured and close with usually a gentle waving figure. Cherry has a uniform texture, is medium heavy, strong, stiff and moderately hard. Cherry is one of the most sought after hardwoods. Cherry turns darker as it ages. The tree reaches heights of up to 100 feet, about 80 feet average, with a tall trunk of about 24'' in diameter.
	This Cherry is from right here in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas. The tree had been down for some time and the Texas sun got the better of it. But I did get a few very different and beautiful bowls from it. Just a few are below. Click image to enlarge.
