FACE SELECTION - Matching Veneers

Book Match
Most commonly used match.  Every other piece of veneer is turned over like adjacent pages in a book.  The veneer joints match and create a mirror image pattern at the joint line.  Book matching is used with rotary, plain sliced, quarter , rift-cut or comb grain veneers.
Slip Match
Adjoining pieces of veneer are in sequence without turning over every other piece. The grain figure repeats, but joints won't show mirrored effect.. Slip matching is often used in quarter, rift cut and comb grain veneers.
Random Match
A random selection of individual pieces of veneer from one or more logs.  Produces a "board like" appearance.  It is most commonly used in opaque grades.
Running Match
Asymmetrical appearance in any single door face.  Veneer pieces of unequal width are common.  Each face is assembled from as many pieces as necessary.
Balance Match
Symmetrical appearance.  Each face is assembled from even or odd veneer from pieces of uniform width before trimming.  This match reduces veneer yield.
Center Match
Symmetrical appearance.  Assembled  from even number of uniform width veneer before trimming.  Veneer joint is in center of panel.  This reduces veneer yield.
