Marquetry (also known as inlay work) is a decorative woodworking technique where pieces of veneer are cut and assembled into intricate patterns, pictures, or geometric designs on furniture surfaces.
This centuries-old craft uses contrasting wood species, shell, metal, or bone to create elaborate decorations on table tops, cabinet doors, and jewellery boxes. Fine marquetry is a hallmark of luxury furniture.
