Intarsia is Italian and means "inlaid work". Intarsia inlays are typically made with wood veneer motives and patterns laid into a base veneer. The inlays may also be other materials like metal, ebony and more. See under marquetry works.

A short description of the working process with Intarsia Wood Denmark
	A decision to add design and style to a piece of furniture or other - also deciding the art style
	Identification of the age of furniture or product
	Identification of the motif - the projection - meetings with the customer and internally
	Drawings are made - by hand at first - then more precise and in detail
	Selection of veneers - a very demanding process - like choosing the colour palettes together with the expression of art - veneers for the motif and the base veneer
	Drawings and veneers put together and made ready for the sawing procedures
	The sawing for our level of quality must be controlled by hand - the precision only to be obtained through years of training
	The inlay itself is puzzled together into the base veneer. The work and order is based experience. Using many types of veneer may test the skills of the intarsia maker
	Surface treatment to make the inlaid works appear perfect
	The finished intarsia work is glued to a product
	The furniture or product will be surface treated according the type and appearance of work that is implicated. Older classical products will be treated as they were origianally

Like any other hight quality production the preparations before the work itself are very important. Further you must posess an extensive stock of veneers in types and colours. Last but not least you need the personal patience and skill to transfer the original idea into a high class piece of art.

The pieces we make may be used for any purpose where you want to decorate in wood, new and old - big and small.

We must have a good communication with each other. Some products are a collection of works by several employees in the company

Restorations of any type of special furniture from any place in the world are part of our working palette.

We also make restorations of older furniture without inlays.

Some pieces may be simple gift items. The customer is welcome to ask for a motif based on his own original drawing or picture

Quite a lot of our works go to the marine industry.

It is an old tradition to use wooden decorations when at sea.

In addition to our standard production we also make special expensive pieces of art for collectors

The marquetry work is the inlay work of various materials and adaptation of inlaid works into other materials.

We use the old techniques for our own marquetry works. The techniques go hand in hand with the intarsia works. We may use metal like brass or silver, mother of pearl or other hard materials.

Only very few companies in Northern Europe master the original marquetry techniques.

We can manufacture in many types of wood veneer. However, with relation to the more special types it is important to state the fact that we are not always able to make larger series using exactly the same veneer.
