Woods used in this chest White Oak:  A hard, straight -grained wood, white oak has   more attractive figure than red oak. It is durable and takes     stain well, finishing more smoothly that red oak.  A wood that is very popular in Europe. Bird's eye Maple: A highly decorative variation of hard maple found in a small percentage of harvested trees. When highly polished, the waving, satiny figure appears dappled with spots resembling bird's eyes.  Purpleheart: An exotic wood that comes out of the north central areas of the Brazilian Amazon. Deep purple in color, fine to moderate texture. Grain may be interlocked or straight.  Commonly used  for heavy construction, it is added here for design accents. Aromatic Cedar : This cedar is classified as a softwood,  and is moderately heavy.  Its red heartwood is a sharp  contrast to the thin white sapwood and makes a striking  chest.  It easily works to a smooth finish.  We recommend a  Natural oil stain or Fruitwood to slightly darken the colors for  an antique appearance.  Interiors are always unfinished to  preserve the aroma said to repel moths.
