Marquetry
is an artistic set of thin wooden plates (veneer) of various colors and
textures. Pieces of wood, docking along the edges with each other, form a
coherent picture, which is then glued to the base. The role of paints in
marquetry is played by the texture and shade of wood, therefore the most
important task is to determine the composition and the artistic skill of the
master to select and combine the correct fragments of veneer. There are
hundreds of different types of veneer in the shop of a marketer, from black to
almost white, and the same wood in different areas can have different shades.
The high
cost of the finished product is primarily due to the laborious manufacturing
process that requires up to 90% of manual labor. The process of performing the
work is quite complex and includes many related operations. At the same time,
assembling the mosaic set itself is only no more than a third of the entire
process. The rest is preparing the image, revising and correcting the set,
gluing, sanding, finishing with oils and varnish, etc. Many steps are repeated
many times to achieve a better result. Oil finishing alone followed by priming
and finishing with shellac lacquer takes up to 7 days.
