Understanding Cuts
The species of the wood is just one factor when it comes to the way your veneer looks. The way we cut it can also affect its final look. Careful slicing methods can change the look of the grain and create beautifully eye-catching patterns.
Rift cut veneers, the cut we used for Dain Torpy Law, are made by rotating the flitch as the blade is adjusted to produce a straight rift grain. The rift cut is commonly used with oak and eliminates the grain variations and cathedrals that are present in oak and some other types of wood.
Other options include rotary cuts, flat cuts, and quarter-sliced veneers, each of which produces specific patterns used with certain species to ensure the maximum beauty of each veneer sheet.
Understanding Veneer Matching
Once the wood is cut into thin slices and bonded to its substrate, it is finished and prepared for installation. We number our veneers so that you can easily create the pattern you want. Book matching is one common installation technique in which the sheets of veneer are applied opposite each other to create a mirror image. Slip matching, as the name suggests, is done by “slipping” the sheets of veneer over each other without turning or flipping. This is an especially popular technique for veneers with sleek, straight grains, such as white oak rift.
The distinctive straight, clean grain of Rift Cut White Oak makes it a popular choice for modern interiors. It’s strong, durable, and timelessly beautiful, offering a striking effect that works well in law firms such as Dain Torpy Law in Boston, a boutique real estate law firm. Our fine wood veneers can add clean lines and sophisticated simplicity to any corporate space and work well on walls, ceilings, columns, counters, and doors.
