1. INLAY(IN WOOD)

INTRODUCTION:

In its earlier form, known as intarsia, buildings or ruins of buildings in elaborate perspective were depicted in wood, tortoise shell and mother-or-pearl. Later, in the 16th and 17th centuries, the art flourished in Holland, France and Italy and a distinction was introduced between inlay and Marquetry, which together were known as intarsia. In true inlay work the design is routed out in a matrix of one material and a piece of different and contrasting material is fitted into the depression.
