A favorite in modern interiors, beech is a straight-grained wood with a very fine, even texture. While beech is naturally a creamy, almost white color, most beech is steamed, producing a consistent slightly pink hue in the veneer. Flat cut veneers present a nice cathedral; quartered veneers carry a silvery fleck pattern. This species produces a number of beautiful figures prized for interior architecture.

This veneer is cut from burled growths found on birch trees in forests in Finland and Russia—the result of local genetics or the soil conditions in that location. The veneer produced is uncommonly beautiful—and atypical burl pattern interspersed with pitch flecks, a swirling figure, and small, dark “eye” markings that create a teardrop effect. A veneer is a rotary cut due to the small diameter of the burl. Learn About Veneer Cut & Matching -

Although veneer is often labeled white or black limba, there is really just one limba tree. Black limba refers veneer selected from the darker heartwood of the tree—typically reddish-brown with varying degrees of irregular black streaking—and is somewhat rarer than white limba, which is cut from the lighter sapwood of the same tree. Figured wood is highly prized for architectural use. Learn About Veneer Cut & Matching -

Bubinga is a striking veneer with a very broad color spectrum ranging from pink to brownish-red to nearly violet. It has a beautiful texture and fine contrasting growth lines that may be wavy in some logs due to the grain’s interlocked fibers. Bee’s wing and block mottle figures are fairly common. Behemoth lengths and widths make it well suited for large architectural installations. When rotary cut, bubinga is called kevazinga. This African veneer is a sophisticated and elegant choice for interior environments. Learn About Veneer Cut & Matching -
