Smoked American Oak

Stock Status: In Stock

Add depth, drama, and distinction to your interiors with our Smoked American Oak Wood Veneer – a luxurious real wood veneer that offers both strength and sophisticated styling. This veneer is produced from premium-grade American oak, then carefully treated using a traditional fuming process to naturally darken the wood from within.

During the fuming process, the oak is exposed to specific conditions that react with the natural tannins in the wood, resulting in a deep, rich colour that penetrates the surface and enhances the grain structure. Unlike surface stains or dyes, this method produces varied tones throughout the veneer – from warm chocolate browns to near-black – while preserving the wood’s authentic texture and character.

Smoked American Oak Veneer is ideal for high-end furniture, interior panelling, cabinetry, and bespoke joinery. Supplied unfinished, it is ready to be oiled, waxed, or lacquered to suit a range of contemporary or classic design schemes. The result is a strong, stable, and visually striking material perfect for creating bold, elegant interiors.

For designers and makers who demand style with substance, Smoked American Oak Veneer offers a refined, natural finish with unique tonal variation in every sheet.

LRV values are obtained by using a Cromocon® Light Reflectance Value (LRV) Meter.

For both RAL and Paint Codes we use a NIX Sensor® to analyse small samples of wood veneer. As this scanner
focuses on surface fibres, the results provided may not accurately represent
the overall appearance of the full veneer. It does not detect tannins or
account for natural variations in structure and colour that may occur along the
length of the veneer.

Highly Recommend

A fantastic family run business!! I showed up unannounced but they still took the time to see me and give me the advice I was after. Supremely knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend. Above all they value each and every customer on a personal level which is a quality that is sorely lacking nowadays.
