English term or phrase: crown cut veneer
"“Maple, with its lighter more subtle colour tones, provides the desired calmness and contrast against the beautiful natural stone and we were able to source ***crown cut veneer*** to achieve a grain pattern with fine vertical lines."

chapa a la plana / chapa de corte plano


Explanation:
referencia en inglés (con foto ilustrativa):

Plain-Sliced Veneer.
(also Known as Flat Cut or ***Crown Cut***)

Is the most widely used. It is manufactured by advancing a half log against a stationary knife in an up-and-down movement. The resulting cut is characterized by straight grain intermixed with cathedrals. This method is moderately priced and is available for most wood species.
