With a fine, light grain pattern and consistent color, Alder offers a host of benefits, making it a versatile choice for your paneling, furniture and cabinetry needs. Natural consistency and beautiful color can give it the visual appeal of cherry, maple or birch. Alder dries to an even honey tone and can be finished to resemble more expensive fine-grained species. There is little color variation between the heartwood and sapwood, Alder is easy to both match and finish, accepting an array of finishes from clear to dark cherry.
