Douglas fir - Real wood veneer from Schorn & Groh

The expressive and rustic character of the straight-grained conifer comes from brown to dark red tones and the distinct contrast between early and late wood. In coarse-ringed wood, this contrast creates impressive tangential grain figures and vividly striped radial planes. The North American Douglas fir is usually more narrow-ringed than the European Douglas fir, which sometimes shows a strongly defined late growth area in its relatively broad annual rings.
