- Herringbone Pattern in Furniture - The herringbone pattern is a popular decorative pattern used in furniture, created by inlaying small rectangular pieces of veneer in a zig-zag pattern, similar to the pattern found in the herringbone link used in jewellery. The pieces of veneer are cut at a 45-degree angle to create the distinctive V-shape, and are arranged in a way that creates a seamless, interlocking pattern.
The herringbone pattern in veneer can be used in a variety of ways in furniture design. It is commonly used on table tops, cabinet doors, and other flat surfaces, where it can add visual interest and texture to the piece. It can also be used on curved surfaces, such as the front of a chest of drawers or the top of a curved console table, where it can create a dramatic and eye-catching effect.
