I've heard of woodcraft stores, they seem to be sponsors of a few how to shows on PBS, they sound like a useful outfit. In any event curly grain is what you need regardless of what part of the walnut tree it came from, it may have been a stump or crotch cut of French walnut originally but as long as the colour and grain of the replacement veneer is close it will work.
