Doors are made from veneer of similar color but not continuity of grain. Flitch Matching Premium grade veneers from several flitches may be used. If more than one flitch is used, grain and color may not be similar. Doors may not be similar grain or color. Crosshatching denotes interruption of grain continuity.
Color change denotes change of color and color grain pattern.
Just in case you are not familiar with the normal procedure to follow when selecting architectural veneers, we offer the following. As the design progresses, various species are selected for color and texture, with inquiries sent to a veneer manufacturer with regard to the availability of specific lengths, square footage, and price. After the species have been designated for a specific area, the veneer manufacturer is responsible for submitting actual flitch samples taken from flitches that he feels will best meet the requirements for color and size. Each flitch has it's own number, and those numbers selected should be written into the specifications so that each woodwork bidder and panel manufacturer knows exactly the wood that has been specified and the price and footage of each particular flitch. Full length samples are readily available, and we would be delighted to know of your interest.
