Veneering

The art and craft of veneering offers special ways to get more from your wood.

With veneer you can access top quality and specially figured logs, which would be rarely offered as sawn boards because of their extreme cost.

These veneers can be used to create special effects such as sequenced run, book match and quarter match. Rare figure such as burr, curl, ripple, mottle, beeswing, pommelle, birds eye, ribbon, quilt and lace become more easily accessible.

Then there is the art of marquetry, which has been part of top quality work for centuries. Do not listen to those uninspired folk who think veneering is just for economy!
