What is cherry furniture?

Cherry furniture is furniture made of cherry wood, a rich, warm-toned wood that adds mood and natural ambiance to any indoor setting, according to Manchester Wood. Cherry wood can possess undertones of purple, gray and red, according to Houzz.

A room with a red, brown or purple color palette would suit cherry furniture, according to Houzz. Cherry furniture can come in lighter or darker shades with a natural cherry or heritage cherry finish. Lighter shades of cherry wood in a room provide it with a modern look, while darker shades give off a more luxurious feel, according to Manchester Wood.
