Patterns
There are a number of "patterns" common to veneered work. This refers to the way the veneers are laid up.
- A: Book matched: where the veneers are opened from the flitch much like the pages of a book.
- B: Slip matched: where the pieces are joined together in the order they come from the flitch, and have the same face kept up.
- C: Radial matched: where the veneer is cut into wedge shaped pieces and joined together.
- D: Diamond matched: where the pattern formed is diamond shaped.
