Here is a great tutorial from 
staff member @dannyc i had forgotten about who was compelled to share his expertise regarding inlay fitting.
I had this bookmarked but had forgotten about it, and @marmak3261 linked me to it once when I was struggling with procedure.
Thanks @dannyc! 
Yes @Ryan.M and @dan, sweet how a surprise like that gives inspiration like a bucket of water in the face!
I don’t have a specific plan, but I’m pretty sure it revolve around fire!
Materials that play with light like that are a favorite of mine, either with a fibrous nature or a surface texture that sheen at you as you traverse the room.
