Inlay made with natural, dyed veneers of various wood species. Perspecto, from the Latin “perspicio”, meaning to see through, to see beyond. Wood changes from a solid and opaque material to translucent and, when superimposed, generates new shades and color gradations. By removing material from wood, a composition is obtained that deceives the eye, making it appear lighter.
