An embossing assembly for use in making high pressure decorative laminates consisting of an open patterned embossing sheet able to resist temperatures of up to 175°C. and pressures of up to 1500 psi without substantial deformation, said embossing sheet having a patterned thickness of between about 0.025 inch to 0.250 inch, and being disposed between two exterior fibrous layers which comprise at least one sheet of fibrous material selected from the group consisting of kraft paper, sulfite kraft paper, alpha-cellulose paper, cotton linter paper, rag paper, asbestos paper, cotton, glass cloth and linen cloth, said fibrous layers being impregnated with a resinous material which also impregnates the interior of the open patterned embossing sheet, said resinous material being selected from the group consisting of phenolic resin, epoxy resin, polyester resin, aminoplastic resin, amide-imide resin, imide resin and aromatic polysulfone resin, wherein the resin ratio in the exterior fibrous layers is between about 1.5 to 2.0 and the thickness ratio of each exterior fibrous layer: embossing sheet is from about 1:2.5 to 1:12, said assembly being heat and pressure consolidated into a unitary bonded structure having smooth edges, and two solid, flexible, exterior fibrous surface layers with protrusions and indentations sharply and deeply conforming to the patterned, 0.025 inch to 0.250 inch surface and openings of the embossing sheet pattern; said assembly having the property, during making a laminate, of being able to resist pressures of up to 1500 psi without rupture of the exterior impregnated fibrous layers and of transferring the pattern to provide a sharp, deep embossing after separation from the laminate.
