Nightstands with a Marquetry Design
Beatriz was commissioned to build nightstands for a room decorated with matching paintings. It was immediately clear that the composition of the marquetry and the black background was eye catching and bold. She wondered if maybe it was too bold and decided to make a lighter design on the second nightstand and play with the contrast between them. She used a traditional double-bevel marquetry technique to cut the veneers.
