Format
Two-Ply Veneer
Wood on wood: a face veneer cross-bonded to a thin wood backer. Stable enough to handle, flexible enough to wrap a radius.

What it is
Two-ply veneer — WOW, wood on wood — is a specialty of Rosebud Veneer. We use it on projects where a flat panel will not conform to a specified radius. Using proprietary techniques developed over many years, when you send a drawing with a custom one-off radius we take the time to ensure the proper backer is applied, for a product that boasts heirloom quality.
Two-ply on curved walls — the flexible backer carries the face around the bend.
Many manufacturers scoff at the idea of end-matched, wood-on-wood veneer, but that is what makes Rosebud Veneer unique. Send us your next challenge. Whether it is twenty feet long or five feet wide, you will receive an honest opinion on construction techniques that you can count on.
