What is solid plywood??

Hi Zen, I think by solid plywood they meant that the core of the ply within contains a solid piece. Could it be the thick piece which you see at the right end of it?

Solid ply is quite common in certain above mid end furniture. Muji seems to use it quite often back in the days, when they make a lot of "solid wood" furniture.

They are generally used when the consumer desires the weight, strength and durability of solid wood, yet with the beautiful finishing of certain grains that does comes with solid wood, as real solid wood have blemishes and knots. So they use a nice wood veneer, or high quality laminate and wrap it over the solid wood inner.

However from your photo is it multiple pieces of wood? Or is it just one piece?

Plywood is like a sandwich of thin wood layers glued together, making it stronger and more stable than regular wood.

Solid plywood is a strong, durable material made by gluing together thin layers of wood, called veneers, in alternating grain directions. This unique structure gives it excellent strength, stability, and resistance to warping compared to solid wood.

It is commonly used in furniture, flooring, and construction due to its versatility and ability to hold screws and nails securely. Solid plywood combines the natural beauty of wood with practical benefits, making it a popular choice for various applications.
