With all the beauty that wood veneers offer, nothing can be more spectacular than                                                                             FIGURED VENEERS We are often asked "How do veneers get the figure? and the answer is not so clear as to why it happens. In Tamo Ash it seems that the trees grow in a very cold climate and the logs that are blessed with the figure tend to grow on the outside of a forest so they are least protected by the cold winds that are prevalent in that part of the World. Somehow the freezing cold wind blowing over the trunks of the tree causes the grain to grow in a distorted way. This theory does not seem to make sense when looking at Sapele Pommele that grows deep in the forest in an equatorial climate and yet the figuring is very similar. Is the figuring a freak of nature? After many years of research this may be the most logical conclusion. Reliance Veneer has a very strong reputation for supplying the best figured sycamore available. This specie only grows in the north of England and Scotland and a couple of years ago Reliance Veneer produced 245 logs of Sycamore into veneer from just one forest. The logs were bought standing and so it was possible to see if there was a trend as to why some were plain and others were figured. After plotting the figured logs within the forest the conclusion was a random distribution of figured logs and no common trend could be plotted or found. In conclusion, we have to be thankful that nature can produce such wonders and that these special logs can be produced into veneers for all to enjoy and admire.
