Instead of using dictionary definitions of Intarsia, we would like to create our own.
Intarsia - the experience of merging Nature's beauty with human ingenuity; finding the perfect combination of woods to express an object or a moment in time; a three- dimensional perspective of the world using natural colored and varied woods; painting with wood.
Mike can create a custom Intarsia Keepsake/Jewelry Box, Pet Urn or Framed Intarsia Wall Hanging from any photo or picture. All of our patterns are hand drawn and all pieces are hand-crafted with pride using only the finest materials.

For Custom Wedding Gift5.0I am thrilled at how beautiful this wedding box turned out. Mike was so accommodating when it came to the box dimensions and wood, the typeface, and the interior lining. I would definitely do business with him again. He was a pleasure to work with.

For Jewelery box with inlay monogram outside cover5.0Mike made a special consideration jewlery box for my granddaughter. I just don't have words to adequately describe how beautiful the item was, it took my breath away when I received it and the pictures he sent while the project was underway were totally eclipsed with the final product. Mike is a true artist with wood and I feel so blessed that I found him on CM. He took my ideas and turned them into something truely unique and hopefully a keepsake for generations. Mike was so easy to work with to fine tune design considerations and to keep me advised of his progress. Would I use him again for any special woodworking projects? You know it!! And I can not provide any recommendation that would do proper justice to his talent.
Thank you Mike !!!

For Custom Knife Block5.0Mike was a joy to work with! He reworked the design a few times based on some indecision on my end, updated me with the project's progress really frequently, and most importantly, gave me an absolutely beautiful knife block. Great, great experience!
