Marquetry wood choice


Bzern

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have done some intarsia and I want to start Marquetry, I looked up some pictures and I found this (attached image), I really like it, but I don't want to used stain woods, it looks like it takes 3 shades of wood to give the effect of shadow. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about what woods I should use, it should have relatively straight grain so it won't take away from the overall appearance. I think I will use red oak for one shade, but I don't know about the others. Thanks a bunch,

Ben
