colors, grains, and textures.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis set contains natural wood veneer offcuts generated during the production of furniture, interiors, and other products at MORI KOUGEI.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nCentered around oak, each set includes a mix of different wood species with a variety of colors, grain patterns, and textures.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThey can be used for marquetry, crafts, models, accessories, collage, prototyping, and many other creative projects.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nEven within the same material category of “wood,” each species has its own distinctive color, grain, texture, and character.\nThis set is also a good way to explore and experiment with a variety of natural woods in small quantities.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is wood veneer?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nWood veneer is a thin layer of natural wood, sliced to approximately 0.2–0.5 mm in thickness.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nAlthough extremely thin, it retains the natural grain, color, and texture of real wood.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nSince 1953, MORI KOUGEI has specialized in applying natural wood veneer for furniture, interiors, architecture, and other products.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe pieces in this set are offcuts from the same veneers we use in our daily production.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe sizes and shapes are irregular, but they allow you to experience and compare the distinctive colors and grain patterns of a variety of wood species.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePlease read before purchasing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThis product is raw wood veneer.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe veneers in this set are not backed with paper.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nBecause they are thin slices of natural wood, they may crack or split depending on how they are bent, handled, or cut in relation to the grain direction.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nIf you intend to bond the veneer to another surface, some familiarity with veneer work is recommended, including the selection of adhesive, the amount applied, and the method of pressing.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\nIf you are using wood veneer for the first time, or if you are looking for a material that is easier to handle, we recommend our paper-backed Natural Wood Veneer Sheets.\n\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe paper backing helps reinforce the veneer, making it less prone to cracking and easier to cut, handle, and apply.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nIf you are unsure which material is best for your project, please consider our\n\u003ca

varies in color, grain, and texture.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe pieces are production offcuts, so their sizes and shapes are irregular.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nSome pieces may include cracks, chips, warping, color variation, small knots, or other natural characteristics.\nWe hope you will enjoy these variations as part of the character of natural

Can beginners use this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nYes, but some care and familiarity with veneer handling is recommended.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nBecause this product is raw veneer without paper backing, the thin wood can crack or split depending on the grain direction and how it is handled.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nIf you are using veneer for the first time, or if you would prefer a material that is easier to cut and apply, we recommend our\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.mori-kougei.com\/ja-us\/collections\/wood-veneer-sheet\"\u003e\nNatural Wood Veneer Sheets\n\u003c\/a\u003e.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ. What is the difference between this product and your Natural Wood Veneer Sheets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe main difference is whether or not the veneer has a paper backing.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis product is raw natural wood veneer, sliced thinly without any backing.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nOur Natural Wood Veneer Sheets have paper applied to the back, which reinforces the veneer and makes it less likely to crack.\nThey are also easier to cut, handle, and apply.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nIf ease of use is important, we recommend our\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.mori-kougei.com\/ja-us\/collections\/wood-veneer-sheet\"\u003e\nNatural Wood Veneer Sheets\n\u003c\/a\u003e.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ. How should the veneer be applied?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe most suitable bonding method depends on the substrate and the intended use.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nWoodworking adhesive can be used in some cases, but because veneer is extremely thin, excessive moisture, too much adhesive, or uneven pressure may cause warping, cracking, or other issues.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis product is not designed for one specific bonding method.\nPlease check the properties of your substrate and adhesive, and test the process on a small piece before proceeding with your final project.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ. Can I cut it with scissors or a utility knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThin wood veneer can be cut with a utility knife or similar cutting tool.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nHowever, depending on the species and grain direction, it may crack or split.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nWe recommend using a sharp blade and making several light passes rather than trying to cut through the veneer in one stroke.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ. Can I use it for marquetry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nYes.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nAt MORI KOUGEI, we also use a wide range of wood species for marquetry.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nBy combining different natural colors and grain patterns, you can create expressions that are unique to real wood.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ. Can I choose the wood species included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nNo. The species cannot be specified.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nEach set is centered around oak and includes a variety of other wood species depending on the offcuts generated during our production process.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe fact that every set is slightly different is part of the character of this product.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ.
