Wood grain: exterior appearance looks a kind of decorative pattern, so corresponding the position that this decorative pattern changes, the reverse side that sees corresponding decorative pattern in cabinet door, if rightness deserves very good, it is pure solid wood
Cross section: the color of the section is darker than that of the panel, and you can see that it is made of the whole piece of wood
