Oysterwood Definition
Oyster veneering, a technique indicative of the William and Mary period,
was achieved by transversely cutting or slicing the smaller branches of
certain trees such as walnut or olive. These small, rounded veneers,
with their circular striations, resembled the inside of an oyster, and
when pieced together, produced a most dramatic and impressive decorative
effect
