Walnut Veneer and Tasmanian Oak Veneer with Natural Features that Enhance Their Character

Wood veneers are popular for inexpensively decorating interior and exterior projects. It's a thin piece of wood glued to a low-quality substrate. By having a veneer of the real wood species glued to a low-grade substrate, one can achieve the look and feel of exotic and expensive real woods such as ebony, mahogany, rosewood, birch, and so on without spending the money on real wood. The use of veneer also contributes to environmental protection because, instead of using solid hardwood, a thin slice of veneer is applied over a low-grade engineered wood product that can be applied to a wide range of projects. Wood veneer gives you design flexibility because you can mix and match different types of grains, textures, and colours to create an atmosphere that complements your space.

Walnut veneer is a popular veneer used in residential and commercial projects in Australia and around the world. It ranges in colour from light grayish brown to chocolate brown and has a moderately coarse texture with grain that ranges from medium porous to uniform. Walnut veneer is a medium-density hardwood that looks great with stain or natural clear coat. It is generally straight-grained, though there may be waves or curls that add character to the piece.

Versatile uses of walnut veneer

Despite changes in humidity and heat, walnut is very durable and does not usually warp. The wood of black walnut is dark, dense, and tightly grained. Because no two pieces of walnut veneer are exactly alike, each of your pieces made from walnut veneer will be unique. When it comes to surfacing high-end furniture, American walnut veneer is your first choice. It can easily accommodate nails and screws. The projects made of walnut veneer would have a long lifespan if properly cared for. To keep the veneer looking new, it can be re-polished. For the best results, use a branded acrylic, water-based, or polyester polish.

Tasmanian oak veneer has a light colour that ranges from straw to reddish brown, with intermediate shades ranging from cream to pink.
