Marquetry is the art of inlaying different woods and other natural materials to create a picture. To inlay is to set a material onto another surface, but recessed in so that inlayed material is at the same level as the surface. Most of the time the inlayed material is wood but it could be ivory, mother-of-pearl, tortoise shell, bark, straw, stone, metal, or gems. Marquetry is often found on the finest furniture. It has been around for thousands of years, and today is considered a dying art.
