71. Straw Marquetry ft Arthur Seigneur

Welcome to season 2 of The Shop Stool Podcast, a podcast for woodworkers and the maker community in general. Hosted by Robin Lewis (RobinLewisMakes), Joey Chalk (King Post Timber Works), and Bryan Cush (Sawdust Bureau).

In this episode we meet our first Parisian, although he currently lives in Sydney. Arthur Seigneur is a world renowned furniture maker, specialising in the art of straw marquetry. It’s a woodworking technique whereby straw is veneered to a substrate, and the straw can be dyed before being applied. It’s a fascinating process, this episode is an eye opener for sure.
