Patent attributes
In certain embodiments, a system includes a support rail configured to attach to a wall and a veneer mounting plate configured to attach to the wall via the support rail. The mounting plate includes a first surface and an opposite second surface that faces the wall when the mounting plate is attached to the wall. The mounting plate includes a support shelf and a retention clip each extending from the first surface and spaced apart such that a channel is formed between them. A veneer object is attached to the mounting plate in the first channel by the retention clip and the support shelf. The retention clip and the support shelf are configured to contact first and second edges, respectively, of the veneer object. The veneer object is retained in position on the mounting plate at least in part by the retention clip and the support shelf.
