The scarcity of this veneer can't be over-stated. The veneers shown below were sliced from a tree found in the Yunnan province of China. The pattern is similar to elm burl but the color is much lighter. Its rarity is unmistakably on par with its is beauty and price. We do not expect it to last very long on our website.
