When it comes to interior design, wood veneers add texture, warmth and a splash of natural beauty to a space. They exude a timeless appeal and are able to tell a compelling story courtesy of their unique patterns, textures and colours.
Quality wood veneers are expertly cut from a variety of species of trees to achieve different grains, effects, colours and contrasts. We use an array of species to create our high quality wood veneers so that we can offer something to suit every taste and application.
In veneer woodworking, a range of cutting techniques are used, each of which results in unique aesthetics that can be used in a variety of applications, in both commercial and domestic settings. It is quite amazing to see how different veneer cuts influence the overall look and appeal of the various timber species.
