Chrome Oak wood veneer is a light gray with slightly darker cathedrals.

Common Uses for Chrome Oak Wood Veneer: Architectural panels, architectural millwork, cabinetry and doors, as well as furniture.

The Tree: These old growth trees average 20-30 growth rings per inch. Selectively cut at peak maturity and in accordance with proper forest management.
