    Default Veneer Identification

    Would anyone know exactly what this veneer is?

    Would it be a Maple?

    Cheers

    Just to muddy the waters a little more, perhaps it could also be camphor laurel.

    From photo three, I would say that it is definitely camphor laurel.
    Are you sure it is all from the same tree?

    No, I'm not sure if they are from the same tree. But will get some more photo's of the rest of it when I get it.
