Mosaic: Intarsia Mastery in Syrian Furniture
The
Mosaic style celebrates the essence of
Syrian furniture through an intricate art form known as
intarsia. At
El Palacio Damasceno, this technique is elevated into a visual tapestry of geometric patterns crafted from multicolored natural woods, delivering a rich, textural experience of heritage and harmony.
What Is Mosaic Inlay?
Mosaic furniture features
tiny, precisely cut wood pieces arranged into complex geometric patterns. This style—also referred to as
marquetry—utilizes a blend of natural woods like
olive, lemon, rosewood, walnut, and eucalyptus. Each segment is chosen for its hue and grain to create a vibrant surface full of depth and rhythm.
Inspired by Syrian Intarsia Tradition
The Mosaic technique is deeply embedded in the traditions of Middle Eastern design, where geometry reflects unity and balance. Our artisans in Damascus craft each pattern by hand, following precise measurements and using sustainable materials. As described in our
workshop process, every panel is a labor of love and discipline—honoring centuries of artistic practice.
