Domestic, Exotic, & Burl Flexible Wood Veneer Made in the USA.
Bloodwood (Brosimum rubescens)—often called Satine—is a prestigious exotic hardwood celebrated for its intense, vivid crimson hue. Unlike other woods that require heavy staining to achieve a deep red tone, Bloodwood’s color is entirely natural, offering a visual depth and "fire" that pigments cannot replicate.
At Oakwood Veneer, we provide this rare species as high-performance Bloodwood wood veneer panels, allowing architects and millworkers to incorporate this dramatic aesthetic into large-scale interiors with ease. To showcase the most sophisticated side of this species, our panels are produced exclusively in a Ribbon Striped orientation. This quarter-slicing process highlights the interlocked grain, creating a beautiful "pinstripe" effect that shimmers as light hits the surface.
Because of its extreme density and vibrant color, Bloodwood wood veneer panels are the premier choice for "statement" architectural elements:
High-Impact Feature Walls: The linear pinstripe grain adds height and luxury to hotel lobbies, executive boardrooms, and high-end retail environments.
Luxury Marine & Aircraft Interiors: Its natural durability and striking crimson palette make it a favorite for custom yacht cabinetry and private jet interiors.
Bespoke Executive Furniture: Provides a prestigious foundation for conference tables and desks that require a bold, exotic presence.
Modern Architectural Accents: Ideal for monolithic designs where a saturated red wood is needed to contrast with stone, glass, or metal.
We manufacture our exotic panels to meet the rigorous demands of professional fabrication shops:
Vibrant Color Consistency: We hand-select our logs to ensure a rich, saturated red throughout your sequence, minimizing pale sapwood or yellowish mineral streaks.
Stable Substrate Options: By purchasing pre-fabricated panels rather than individual wood veneer sheets, you ensure a perfect bond to high-quality cores like MDF, Particle Board, or Veneer Core Plywood.
Natural "Satine" Luster: We select logs that exhibit a natural silky sheen, ensuring that the finished panels have a dynamic, high-end feel under clear topcoats.
Precision Slicing: Because Bloodwood is an exceptionally hard wood, our panels are processed using industrial-grade equipment to ensure a smooth, flat face that is ready for the finishing room.
