Brass & Inlay Work: questions
Is brass inlay durable?
Yes, when properly set and polished.
Can inlay be added to existing furniture?
Sometimes, on flat solid wood surfaces.
Is the carving done by hand?
Yes. Detailed Chinioti carving is hand-cut. We say clearly when a pattern is machine-cut instead.
