Carpathian Elm Burl wood veneer 4" x 13" raw with no backing 1/42" thick "AAA"

Description

Carpathian Elm Burl wood veneer 4" x 13" raw with no backing 1/42" thick. "AAA" quality grade.
TWO pieces per price.
As pictured. Raw veneer often requires some flattening prior to lamination, which is very easy to do. Burl woods may have small holes that require wood filler. Some pieces may show knife marks where the veneer was sliced. These marks will sand off after lamination.
About pictures
:
Pictures were taken when the veneer is dry. Color adjustments have been made to show the color as best as is possible. It is impossible to get photos exactly correct in color, but I made an effort to do so.
For raw veneer or un-backed products, I suggest using the Internet to see what advice is available as opinions vary on the best way to handle that product. Below is general information.

Disclaimer:
Sometimes veneers have minor splits or tears in them. These are usually taped or repaired in some manner and shouldn’t impact overall quality or satisfaction. There may also be some minor wood filler used to fill cracks and other crevices that may exist. Wood products are rarely perfect and some consideration of that may
be nee
ded occasionally since this is a natural product and is rarely ever perfect.
Some sanding is usually required before finishing to prepare the surface for a finish and occasionally to remove veneer tape, splice glue, or some other imperfection.
