We have not yet met people indifferent to such a gift. We revive the ancient art of Marquetry and give it a new modern look. Marquetry is an art set of thin wooden plates (veneers) of various colors and textures. Pieces of wood, docking along the edges between each other, form an integral picture, which is then glued to the base. The role of paints in marquetry is played by the texture and shade of the tree, so the most important task is to determine the composition and artistic skill of the master to choose and combine the right veneer fragments. The high cost of the finished product is due primarily to the laborious manufacturing process, requiring up to 90% of manual labor. The process of performing work is quite complicated and involves many related operations. At the same time, assembling the mosaic set itself is only no more than a third of the whole process. The rest is the preparation of the image, refinement and correction of the set, gluing, grinding, finishing with oils and varnish, etc. Many stages are repeated many times to achieve a better result. Only an oil finish followed by a primer and a final shellac finish takes up to 7 days.
