I like being able to see oxblood and black cherry together.....

Great collection......

I agree.

Interesting that from Art's colour samples, the black cherry seems to be a bit darker than oxblood, I'm not so sure now after seeing this.

Having said that, there is more light on the front row of hats so hard to tell.
Both very nice colours though.

I can understand why some of you have so many of Art's hats. It would be hard to pick only one.......or two........or..............

As I found out when taking pics of my black hat, black and black cherry like to suck up the light from the camera... Now I am not a professional photographer or even close... But i found that by putting the black hat in front of snow or something lighter behind it takes a more true shot of the color.....

But hey, what do I know, I am just a man with keyboard.... LOL

The black cherry is a darker hat than oxblood, with a purple tone as opposed to the red of the oxblood. They are both hard colors to capture because they react so much to light. I have a picture of them together that I will try to find that may represent them better.

Great - thanks for posting that Bart.

I'm hoping Art has a black cherry body in stock when my order gets to the top of his pile.

A Sunset and a Black Cherry, I love 'em both. Both are wonderful, hard to define colors. I currently am in line for a Rust. Sounds like the start of a great addiction; hmmmm....I wonder if this is how Charlie Sheen started?...
