Marquetry Veneer Sorting & Being Brutal
Brian sorts through our extensive store of veneers for marquetry.
Over the years we have accumulated a mountain of veneers, and now we can't get to all of it. This looks brutal, but we have boxes and draws full of unsorted stock. Donations from previous members and generally people donating veneers for marquetry to us has led us to take this exceptional action.
Local Club needs help.
Harrow marquetry Group has now been running for 40 years
Membership has been up and down and at the moment its down!
So we need new members. Any ideas on how to get the members will be greatly apprised. Word of mouth works, but with all the new social media surely we should be able to get new members.
First Marquetry Completion for 2018
At the Harrow Marquetry Group, we had our first competition of 2018. Six of the members made a picture based on a subject that was given to them in a black and white format. The only restrictions the member had was don't change the size and content. Each member has full use of all the veneers that are in the group's stores. Also, they can use anything they may have at hand. Interpreting the picture and translating into marquetry is what this marquetry competition is all abou
