Abstract
A veneer for the veneering of especially curved surfaces has a face veneer formed from thin veneer sheets. The veneer sheets are adhesively bonded along their edges so as to be butted flush and on the side opposite the visible side to a mock veneer which is arranged underneath and which extends over the entire region of the face veneer. To maintain the relative movability between the veneer sheets and the mock veneer, an adhesive is coated on underneath the veneer sheets and is influenced in its setting reaction. In terms of the setting reaction, the adhesive is still reactive over a particular timespan. Thus, when the veneer is finally applied, the adhesive does not tear apart at the joints during a shaping curvature of the veneer because the adhesive in the joint region of adjacent edges of the veneer sheets is set completely.
