stone inlays
Can anyone please give me any information concerning stone or marble inlays?
I was mostly interested in how shapes are cut so that they fit next to one
another and also what is traditionally used to fasten the pieces in place.
The best example of inlay work that inspires me is the floors and wall
pieces found in the chapel of precious stones in Florence, Italy where the
images depicted actually show tonal blends and volume using only the natural
color found within the stone and its veining.
Thanks,
