Wood Species

Young Furniture custom cabinetry is produced using only the highest quality hard and softwoods.  Cabinetry is available in a number of wood species including eastern white pine, paint grade poplar and maple.  Each lift of wood is inspected upon delivery for overall grade and moisture level.  Through a meticulous process, the rough lumber is selected and sorted to the highest standard and will eventually be produced into unique custom cabinetry. 

Maple

Maple is a hardwood with color variations of grayish white to light brown with some heartwood that can be light to dark reddish brown.  Maple is sorted for color, grain, stability and may contain small knots.  Maple is generally straight grained, but may contain some curl or tiger.  Maple is suitable for staining or painting and may also be finished natural.  Maple darkens slightly with age. View Maple...

 

Paint Grade

 Poplar is a medium-density wood with color variations of white, green, brown, purple and black.  Poplar is sorted for stability, and visible parts will generally be free from knots.  Poplar is not sorted to be consistent in color.  Poplar is sold as a paint-grade product; however, it may take some stains consistently.  Natural poplar will darken to a brown tint with age.  View Paint Grade...

 

White Pine 

Pine is a softwood, light in color with tones that are creamy white with yellow sapwood and reddish heartwood. Knots may be red or black in color throughout and will be structurally sound.  Pine is sorted for color and structural integrity. Pine is suitable for staining or clear finish.  Pine may be painted, however the knots will show through the paint over time. Natural pine will yellow with age.  View White Pine...
