A Cherry Hutch in the Kentucky style

This client wanted a hutch of this style for their kitchen area. The major issue that they faced was that due to where it would be placed, the maximum depth of the lower unit could only be 16". There were no commercial versions that met this depth requirement.

Appalachian Cherry was chosen for the wood. The boards were then selected for best grain pattern matching.

of the wood grain pattern

We have access to some spectacular quarter sawn cherry boards. These were used for the ship lapped back of the upper unit and for the bodies of the drawers.

 

The boards for the ship lapped back are laid out in the best sequence for grain matching

The drawer fronts were made from one board so that the grain would be continual across the front of all of the drawers.

Here you can see the beauty of the quarter sawn cherry used in the dovetailed drawers.

Custom crown was made to
accent the piece.

The upper unit has hidden lighting for the shelves. Restoration glass glass was chosen for the top unit

The completed unit.
Behind the raised panel doors there is an adjustable shelf.
