4.0 out of 5 stars The Marquetry Course, 28 Aug 2003
I enjoyed reading this publication very much. The easy to follow instruction lead you through the illustrations and the various tasks, to perform either elementry or proffesional aspects of marquetry or parquetry.
The way that the book is written clearly defines the experience of the authers as both teachers and craftsmen. I have already been sucesfull in producing some of the more straight forward tasks and I look forward to one day being able to complete some of the more adventurous aspects of the book. -- Conclusion, very impressed.
