Yazzie, Navajo | Block
inlay is comprised of epoxy, dye, and crushed stone. Block is often
more consistent in color, pattern and hardness than natural stone and is more
suitable for applications such as inlay knife handles that may be subject to abrasion
and moisture. The name of the inlay reflects what the block looks like, not what
the inlay is made of. |
