Matching Veneer Leaves<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Wood panels are constructed by joining multiple veneer\u00a0leaves, and there are several ways the\u00a0<\/span>leaves can be joined<\/span><\/a>, or “matched,” within each panel. Some veneer matching techniques use the grain to create new patterns such as diamonds, while other methods highlight the natural grain direction. <\/span><\/p>\n

Book Match<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Every other veneer leaf in a panel is flipped, creating pairs of leaves that are mirror images of each other. Book Matching allows for maximum continuity of the wood’s grain.<\/span><\/p>\n

Slip Match<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Similar to Book Match, but the veneer leaves are not flipped. Instead, each leaf is joined side-by-side to create a panel. The resulting look is a straight repetition of the grain pattern.<\/span><\/p>\n

Random Match<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As the name suggests, the veneers are joined together randomly within each panel, resulting in a rustic aesthetic. There is no grain continuity within a panel, and veneer widths may vary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Diamond Match<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0& Reversed Diamond Match<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These decorative techniques use square or rectangular veneers with a straight grain. In Diamond Match, four leaves are joined so\u00a0that the grain forms a diamond across the entire panel. In Reversed Diamond Match, the four leaves are flipped outward, so the\u00a0grain creates a series of “V” shapes\u00a0that spread out from the center of the panel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sunburst Match<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is another decorative method but uses triangular-shaped leaves which are joined together like slices of pie. The skinniest point of each leaf meets at the center of the panel. The leaves are arranged\u00a0so\u00a0that the grain forms a sunburst on the panel, increasing in size from the center outwards. This is a bold, dramatic match.<\/span><\/p>\n
