Hi Julia
absolutely magnificent work.:2tsup:
I have toyed with the idea of doing some marquetry.
Your work has got me thinking a lot harder now.
How long have you been doing this class of work?

Thanks everybody,

I did marquetry since 2005. I have a diploma in woodworking and I am specialized in marquetry. I do my best to makes things different. Adding some marquetry to a cabinet is a great way to put a signature on it!!!

Here is the workbench that goes with the two cabinet doors.

That is a beautiful jewellery box , my wife likes it too .It has a chunky but elegant look to it.
The marquetry is fabulous, way beyond my skills though.
