When choosing doors, pay attention to whether they’re covered with natural or modified veneer. What’s the difference? The former is made from layers of wood glued together in the order in which they were cut from the log. Such veneer often has visible knots and discoloration, which some see as a flaw while others view it as an advantage. Modified veneer is free of any discoloration or imperfections that might mar the wood grain, and the final finish pattern is mechanically shaped.

Natural wood looks beautiful and is always in style, and you can easily match veneered doors to any interior. The advantages of veneer don’t end there.

This veneer offers:

• naturalness;
• durability;
• timelessness.

As long as you match them appropriately to the character of each room, you’ll achieve wonderful results.
