Specialized Cutting Techniques for Optimal Yield
Burl veneers, prized for their rarity and captivating aesthetic, are crafted from the bulbous growths or burls found on certain tree trunks. These burls are sliced into thin sheets typically ranging from 0.6mm to 2.0mm thick. Due to the irregular grain patterns and tight knots within the burl, specialized cutting techniques are often required to maximize yield and showcase the unique wood formations. The veneer sheets are then bonded to a stable substrate like MDF or plywood to ensure stability and ease of installation.
