www.MedallionCabinetry.com - Medallion Cabinetry expanded wood species offering to include Rustic Cherry giving customers more rustic style options. Rustic Cherry, introduced at KBIS 2008 in Chicago, IL, is available on a variety of door styles in new and existing finishes.

"With a continuing trend towards the personalization of space our dealers have asked for more rustic

style options to incorporate into their designs, so we gave them Rustic Cherry," said Duke Piotter, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing of the Elkay Cabinet Division, "Rustic Cherry offers the same warmth and appeal of Cherry but adds more of the natural lumber characteristics into the design."

Similar to Cherry, Rustic Cherry ranges in color from pink to dark brown with flowing grain patterns. Characteristics inherent in Rustic Cherry giving it a charming appeal include open and closed knots of all sizes, mineral stains and streaks, burls, blemishes and naturally occurring worm tracking and worm holes. Rustic Cherry is available in Medallion's Designer Gold and Designer product lines.
