The “Thorn” marquetry art piece by Troy Hyde embodies the dynamic interplay between strength and elegance through minimalist shapes. This artwork juxtaposes the rich, dark tones of Ebony Macassar wood, the deep red hues of Red Gum wood, and the metallic sheen of copper, creating a striking and sophisticated visual experience. The natural wood grain, meticulously hand-cut and inlaid with precision, adds depth and texture, engaging the viewer with its intricate design.

Marquetry, a centuries-old technique of inlaying wood veneer to create elaborate patterns, is masterfully showcased in “Thorn.” Each piece of wood is carefully cut, glued, finished with shellac, and lightly wax polished, ensuring both durability and a refined finish. “Thorn” captivates with its bold, geometric lines and intense contrasts. The design invites the viewer to explore the tension between the materials and forms, sparking an active dialogue with the artwork.

Every marquetry art piece by Troy Hyde is a one-of-a-kind creation, complete with a certificate of authenticity, signed and stamped by the artist. Displayed within a sleek lime wood frame, “Thorn” is designed with a floating effect that enhances its dramatic presence. The frame’s natural grain complements the artwork, creating a balanced harmony between the materials and the artistic expression. For added sophistication and protection, “Thorn” is packaged in a presentation box, making it an ideal choice for gifting or when storage is needed.
