Here are a few more woods that you might want to add to the short list of veneers that you consider for projects:
Kewazinga Veneer - Lately we've highlighted a number of super value veneers, and Kewazinga deserves a place on that list as well. A medium brown wood With swirly, wavy tan to brown figure, Kewazinga is perhaps as close as you can get to a burl without actually being a burl. At just $5.49, it's a real deal.
Tineo Veneer - If there were a list of woods belonging to a category entitled "Wow Factor Woods," Tineo might headline the category. It's a beautiful pink wood that almost looks like an artist painted on large black flames in regular intervals. In reality, the flames came directly from nature.
Aspen Veneer - One more wood that deserves a place on the "Super Value" list, Aspen is a beautiful looking tan wood with pillowy grain that is much more elegant than you might expect for $3.99. Add a nice deep stain and you might be able to place it on the "wow factor woods" list.
Birch Veneer - Birch comes in two varieties, White Birch Veneer which is pictured to the right, and Red
Birch Veneer. The color pattern is similar to the Red and White versions of Oak, where White is relatively pale or tan, and red is a redish tan. However the pattern is similar to Maple, so similar in fact that they are often confused.
Ipe Veneer - Perhaps the deepest brown of any wood, Ipe, also known as Ironwood Veneer, is best used in areas where a prominent grain pattern is not necessary or not wanted, and might detract from its surroundings. The deep brown look might be nicely paired with a cream color wood.
