Marble marquetry walls — bespoke fabrication by Art Inlay
Product 05 — Wall surfaces

Marble marquetry walls

Thin-section stone veneer for vertical surfaces — book-matched wall panels, headboards and framed cartouches, honeycomb-backed up to 1200 × 2400mm for panels that travel.

Begin a commission

Book-matching turns a single block into a mirrored composition — the wall becomes a painting the quarry made. We select blocks for figure, slice them thin, and match leaves so veins run continuous across the wall.

For panels over 1200mm we bond a 10mm stone face to aluminium honeycomb: one fifth the weight of solid stone, flat, and safe to hang on standard substrates. Panels arrive framed and numbered.
