fave Aristocrat wood selection

Since my house has Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors, I decided to go with Dark Red Mahogany. Bob sent me a couple of images he found to make sure we were talking about the same flooring.

Then out of the blue, he sent me an email telling me he was sending me two wood samples so I could compare two potential stains. He said the only way to know which would look the best was to compare them in the actual room where the humidor would be.

I told him I wanted it darker, but we ended up going with the ligher of the two stains. It looks great in the room.

I am extremely happy with my selection.

Mark - what size are you looking at? I definitely recommend measuring where you think it will go to see how much room it will take up. I didn't realize how deep 25 inches is until I was trying to find a good place for mine. Let's just say, it didn't look good where we thought it was going to go.
