Wood Veneers Lengths 250g

Excellent!! Surprised by the quality

I liked both the amount and the variety of woods, as well as the actual size of the veneers which were large. You have to handle them with care, however, as -- unlike Eighteenth Century veneers which were an eighth of an inch thick -- these are little thicker than a sheet of 100 gsm paper.

The packet contained a great selection of veneers, some prettier than others. My pack was a little heavy on the lighter woods, but this made no difference to me as I just wanted to play around with them. I would have really liked it the packet included some kind of list of which woods were included as not everybody can identify wood by sight, and some of the veneer sheets were about twice as thick as others, which limited how I could use them for my project. That said, it was a great price for a wide selection. And one of them matches the black walnut veneer of an old desk I thrifted, so I have tucked it to one side in case it ever needs patching up.

Use to cover patches. Perfect thickness

Perfect for laying down repairs or crafting something bespoke.

Split too easily

Bought these for some crafting! Loads of sheets and the colour variation / selection is amazing including blue and green. Thickness is perfect. Can’t wait to get working.

Generally happy with the different woods, but it would have been used to know what the various species were. It’s my first attempt at marquetry and I’m a bit disappointed with trying to capture a lifelike rendition of my cockatoo.

I was quite excited to receive this item, way better than anticipated. 250g is a decent amount of veneer and the sheets are quite large. Most of the timbers were quite plain and unexciting for someone used to Australian specialty timbers, but by the same token the sheets are regular-grained and lacking the knots, splits and gum veins common in veneers I've used. I don't recognise many of the timbers, one looks like radiata pine while I assume the rest is beech or larch or similar. I mainly use veneers in box-making and many pieces would be eminently suitable except there's not enough of any one timber for anything but a very small box. One sheet had me shouting with joy, because it's almost jet black and supremely attractive. Alas it was one of the skinnier sheets, so I will disappear down another rabbit hole trying to identify the timber to find more.

Assez fragile donc il faut être très méticuleux et patient. Se munir de bons cutters. La finesse des plaques impose de les conserver bien à plat et serrés pour éviter que ça vrille à cause de l humidité dans l air.

very good
