Abstract:
Today, when the furniture manufacturers are
seeking for new market segments, the authors come
with the proposal of re-introducing the marquetry
technique for furniture decoration. Based on the
knowledge of the artistical styles which used
this technique in time, the authors launch the
idea of supplying „in an envelope”
standardized composition elements, in order to
obtain different decorations at a high productivity
rate. Marquetry, as a component of the inlay technique,
uses different types of materials, adding thus
colour and beauty to the produced pieces of furniture
and making more evident the decorations as in
comparison with those obtained by intarsia.
Key words: marquetry,
furniture, decoration techniques. |
