Sunset
Size: (width, height, deep) 28"x28"x0.75" 71 x 71 x 1.9 cm Dolphins play and leap from the water. In the background we see cliffs. It is sunset and the artwork is intricate in its universal theme. This beautiful item of marquetry is the fruit of a long and detailed process of picking, cutting, placing, and gluing which takes a long time. In a traditional technique, different design elements are cut separately in an attempt to reduce a gap left by a knife´s blade. The art panel is covered with 2 coats of sealer and 5 coats of a high gloss port cat lacquer, sanded between coats and rubbed with 600 & 1000 wet/dry sandpaper then machine polished to a high gloss finish.

My name is Grzegorz Czarnecki. Currently I reside in Maspeth, New York, but originally I am from Poland. Ever since my youth I have had a profound interest in carpentry. The job of designing and creating all sorts of finished products from wood gave me a feeling of great satisfaction and fascination.
I have been involved in custom woodworking for over 25 years; initially as a craftsman of residential interior and furniture. I make cabinetry and furniture for every room of the house: kitchens, bathrooms, dining rooms, walking closets, home offices and libraries.
I have designed and made multiple kitchens and built-ins for myself, family, friends and neighbors. It is a field which I truly love and for which I have a great affinity.
A wide variety of woodworking skills allows me to build custom furniture to my customers’ specifications, to work with them to build designs that will best suit their needs and to exceed their expectations. I enjoy bringing difficult projects to life with unparalleled craftsmanship.
When I was 15, I first encountered the style of marquetry. My love for that form of art and, what I quickly discovered, great skill in the field, that I had, opened up a whole new world to me, one which I knew I had to explore.
MARQUETRY or wood decorative artistry is considered to be one of the most difficult arts. Besides unrepeatable skills, it requires patience, engagement, and unprecedented precision from a craftsman.
