intarsia (process) (marquetry (process or technique), <surface covering processes and techniques>, ... Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name))

Note: Decorative wood process in which the design or pattern is made by assembling small pieces of veneer in various shapes. The term, which derives from 15th-century Italy, is commonly used to describe both "marquetry," in which the entire surface is veneered, and "wood inlay," in which the pattern pieces are laid into a solid ground. The term may also be used to refer to similar works of stone, glass, or another material. Distinguished from mosaics, as pieces in intarsia work are precision-cut to tightly fit together.

Additional Notes:

Dutch ..... Decoratief procedé waarbij het ontwerp of partroon gemaakt wordt door kleine stukken houten inlegwerk in verschillende vormen. De term stamt uit het vijftiende eeuwse Italië, en wordt veelal gebruikt voor zowel 'margueterie' als 'inlegwerk'. De term kan verwijzen naar gelijkaardige werken van steen, glas of ander materiaal. Het onderscheidt zich van mozaïeken, omdat intarsiawerk nauwkeurig is gesneden om het precies te laten passen.

Spanish ..... Incrustación tipo italiano en madera caracterizada especialmente por motivos figurativos.
