Material Tolerances

*Tableaux Veneer uses a substrate made from thin slices of hardwood walnut sheeting glued onto MDF panels. The walnut veneer is harvested from real trees. Since every tree is different, every board of veneer will have varying color and grain pattern variations which can affect the final finish color.

**Iron Light Rust, Patina Bronze, and Patina Copper finishes are organic finishes applied using natural chemical processes (e.g. oxidation). Clients should expect some color variations and an overall rougher texture on these finishes.
