Checkerboard Inlay
The checkerboard pattern is meticulously crafted by artisans who alternate layers of olive and ebony wood. Marquetry, as a decorative technique, has seen its methods and materials evolve significantly over the centuries.
This process results in a strikingly distinctive handle that is sure to catch the attention of your friends. Boasting greater durability than wood painting, marquetry enjoyed renewed popularity across Europe during the Renaissance.
In this precise art form, the blending of colours and the quest for unique patterns, whether in wood or straw marquetry, is akin to creating a painting. The careful arrangement and nuanced combination of different wood types and patterns contribute to detailed and exquisite inlaid artworks.
