V033 – LACEWOOD
Has a very conspicuous flecking that gives this wood its namesake.
The wood itself is a reddish brown with grey or light brown rays, which result in a lace pattern when quartersawn.
Like other woods that exhibit the strongest figure in quartersawn pieces, (such as Sycamore),
Lacewood has the most pronounced figure and displays the largest flecks when perfectly quartersawn;
this is due to the wood’s wide medullary rays, whose layout can be seen the clearest when looking at the end grain.
V034 – EUCALYPTUS
In its simple form – cf. Eucalyptus Pommele, Eucalyptus Riegel – it is rarely used as a front veneer, mostly as a side and interior veneer, because the wood is not very expressive.
In addition to veneer production, eucalyptus is used for ship and vehicle construction, for railway sleepers, and as plantation wood, mainly for paper production.
