Tropical Veneer Collection

GlobalShop Best New Product Award Winner, Honorable Mention

Handcrafted veneer products from South America are featured using organic materials such as Coconut and Totumo Shell, Plantain Bark, Tagua Seed and Pearlstone. A variety of substrates combined with resins are used as a base to produce the panels or tiles, stabilizing the natural products. Different colored resins can be used to add additional dimension and color, and several materials can be used in combination to produce striking designs for wall applications, doors, ceilings, screens and furniture.
