I'm holding new inlay I made next to the vertical piece I installed on this cellarette, or mid 1800's wine box for the parlor. It's English in the Georgian style.
Top is new, bottom is sectioned and all around the thing 1/3 of the inlay was missing or damaged. Birch with ebony center. 1/4" wide by 3/32nds thick So the ebony was 1/8th and the birch 1/16th ea. glue is up in a 2" wide sandwich and saw off the 3/32" one by one each time a making a pass over a planer for a smooth outside surface.
