Veneers are very thin slices of wood which are used to cover base materials. This gives the effect of solid wood but at a reduced cost and with enlarged scope for application: different slicing processes produce different decorative grain patterns whilst the base material maintains shape and strength.
Special veneered boards are available to order, including Burls.

The appearance of the veneer sheet is determined by the way the wood is sliced and how the pieces are joined together.
The ways the veneer can be cut and details of how the various strips of veneer can then be jointed to produce the final sheet are shown below. The drawings give you a good idea of the end result.
This helps you decide what your panel will finally look like and the best choice for your application. For further information go to www.decospan.com

Ways of slicing
The description of the faces of the veneered boards e.g. crown or quarter cut refers to the front face only; the reverse on two-sided boards may be either.
![]() |
Quarter Cut Produced by cutting at right angles to the growth rings producing straight grained effect. |
![]() |
Crown Cut Produced by cutting a log in half and then slicing parallel to its centre to produce the crown or heart effect |
![]() |
Rotary Cut The log is rotated around its axis against a knife, as if unrolling a carpet. This produces a continuous sheet with sometimes very wild characteristics. |
![]() |
Burrs A natural defect on the outside of the tree and/or its root. Characteristically there are small knots grouped closely together giving a highly decorative appearance. The veneer is mainly rotary cut. |
