Veneer Douglas Fir heimisch 0.85 mm
Douglas fir - the straight-grained coniferous wood has an expressive and rustic character, which it gets from its brown-orange to dark-red colouring and a striking early and late wood contrast. This contrast creates impressively figured tangential surfaces and strongly striped radial surfaces in woods with large annual ring widths.
