How it's made
From drawing to wall, by hand.
Each piece starts as a drawing. Veneers are chosen for their grain and tone, cut fragment by fragment, fitted, glued and pressed, then finished to bring out the wood's own color. Nothing is stained or printed.

Questions
About the work.
What is marquetry?
Marquetry is the craft of building a picture from thin sheets of wood veneer. Each fragment is cut to shape and fitted against its neighbors, so the image comes from the natural grain and color of the wood rather than paint.
Which woods do you use?
Natural veneers such as walnut, oak, maple and a range of exotic species, chosen piece by piece for tone and grain.
Is any of it painted or stained?
No. Every color and shadow in a piece is the wood's own.
Can I order a piece in a different size?
Yes. Most pieces can be made again at a size that suits your wall. Ask about the piece you like and I will tell you what is possible.
How do I buy a piece?
