Oh yes I remember these pictures, thank you Alan. You can see Balinese priests cutting with knives like this.
The pitting is due to the tool I used on such thin spaces, unfortunately. I learned what to use and not use when working on this specialized type of inlay.
Tough work - that's why it took me a couple of years to finish. Tons of thin super close inlay. Thank you for your kind comments.
Yes chiseled and beveled on one side and flat on the other.
