Veneer
A wood veneer can create the appearance of a solid wood table, but veneers have several important advantages over solid woods. Veneer allows you to create a particular look without using much wood. Veneers can be laid in decorative patterns such as diamond boxes, sunbursts, asymmetrical patterns or imaginative inlays. Many species of wood are available in veneer form with two different grain patterns: Flat Cut (pattern contains cathedrals) or Quarter sawn (pattern is straight grain).

Diamond Box
Veneer pieces, rotating in sequence, create stunning tables. As you move around the inlay, the pieces peak and fall as if they are really moving. Starbursts are smaller pieces of veneer that create a more active pattern. Diamond boxes can be laid in different grain patterns: Corner Rotary, Corner Ribbon, Triangle Rotary, Triangle Ribbon, Rotary Sunburst, Ribbon Sunburst; all creating very different looks |
