History: Mahogany was not widely used for furniture before the18th Century, when it largely replaced walnut as the predominant cabinet making wood. Chippendale, Sheraton and other furniture makers like Goddard and Townsend used hickory extensively.
Maple 
Color: ?Light tan or cream to a light reddish brown
Native To: ?There are 115 species of maple trees. Only 5 commercially important species grow in the United States. Two of the five are hard rock maple and sugar maple.
Properties of the Wood: ?Maple is so hard and resistant to shocks that it is often used for bowling alley floors. Its evenly sized pores give the wood a fine texture and even grain. Maple that has a curly grain is often used for violin backs (the pattern formed is known as a fiddle-back figure). Burls, leaf figure, and bird's-eye figures found in maple are used extensively for veneers. The bird's eye figure in maple is said to be the result of stunted growth and is quite rare.
History: ?Maple was very popular in furniture-making since early colonial days. maple can be stained to simulate cherry wood.

Properties of the Wood: ?Oak is a heavy and strong wood. Prominent rings and large pores give oak a course texture and prominent grain.
History: ?Oak was the wood of choice for the Gothic furniture made in the Middle Ages. Oak is the most popular wood used to craft American and English country furniture today.
Walnut 
Color: ?Light brown to dark chocolate brown
Native To: Walnut is one of the most versatile and popular cabinet making woods. Its many varieties grow in Europe, the United States and Asia.
Properties of the Wood: ?Walnut is strong, hard and durable, without being excessively heavy. It has excellent woodworking qualities, and takes finishes well. Large burls are common. Walnut solids and veneers show a wide range of figures, including strips & burls. European walnut is lighter in color and slightly finer in texture than American black walnut, but otherwise comparable.
History: ?Walnut and oak were the primary cabinet making woods in 17th Century Europe. In 18th century America , walnut was often stained to imitate mahogany. The 1820's and 30's in the US are often referred to as the "Black Walnut Period" due to the preponderance of this wood. The Queen Anne (1702-1714) period in England is often referred to as the "Age of Walnut."
