Production:
The Walnut Burl has to be very carefully placed in boiling vats and cooked at certain temperatures over a period of days or it is susceptible to checking, warping, and shrinking.
Walnut Burl is rotary cut and due to the nature of the wood very often stones and other items are found embedded in the Burl when being cut. These are removed immediately to ensure no damage or blunting is done to the cutting knife.
Please be aware that width measurements are taken from the middle part of the sheet. This means that the width may taper below or above the stated measurement so please allow for an extra few cm or get in contact for exact measurements.

I ordered two scraps of burl walnut veneer around Christmas. The pieces arrived in a few days, meticulously packed. I didn’t exactly know how I was gonna use them, but I’ve always been a wood lover, and burl wood has a comeback now, so I decided to incorporate it somehow into the interior. Today I had some spare time and voilà…my table lamp has got a gorgeous collar. Maybe I’ll give it a lick of lacquer later to bring out the depth of the wood, but I like it like this too. It’s definitely not my last project, and I know where to order from next time too. Thank you! 🙂
I'm trying to renew some tambour that are in a Volvo 740gle limousine. I'm not very familiar with veneering or good with wood in general, but I'm giving it a try.
The Burl walnut veneer was thin and quite delicate to handle, but it was possible to bend and glue it over the rounded clock edges, (something the original manufacturers were not able to do) The veneer was polished using Brown French polish which enhanced its deep colouration. The reverse of the clock has the best contrast of the veneer colouration which unfortunately would have been lost on the face side. The polished veneer is quite dark but the contrasting light colouration of the veneer really makes the clock stand out
The veneer was missing on one side and there was slight damage. Repaired damaged area. After some days flattening the veneer I cut it to size and glued it in position. Veneer although good grain quality was darker than I would have liked but was a improvement.
